Mon, Jan 15, 2024On Monday, January 15, BZC will
commemorate the Martin Luther King, Jr
holiday with an 8:30‒11:30 morning of zazen,
reflection, and neighborhood service. The
day’s program is still under development, but
our tentative schedule is:
• 8:30‒ 9:00 am — Zazen
• 9:00‒10:00 — Reading the words of Dr.
King and discussion based on his teachings
and those of other teachers of equity and
liberation.
• 10:00 — National Karma Repentance
Ceremony, based on the Bodhisattva
Ceremony. There will be an option to include
personal repentance.
• 10:30 — Participants gather for
neighborhood work: cleaning up the traffic
barrier area on Milvia, and making bag lunches
for our unhoused neighbors.
• 11:15 — Reconvene at BZC for a closing
circle. -
