New Year’s Eve at BZC New Year’s Eve at BZC
–
Sun, Dec 31, 2023As in the past, BZC will host a New Year’s Eve celebration consisting of an evening of zazen followed by a bonfire and refreshments on the patio. Details will be finalized closer to the event, but we anticipate zazen in both the zendo and the online zendo. Late in the evening those present can take turns ringing the densho bell for a total of 108 times. At midnight we will chant the Heart Sutra and then gather outside to read and place in the bonfire the names of those who have died this year. Refreshments will be served and good wishes shared all around.
If you wish to add names to the list, please contact Zendo Manager Preston Evers at prestonevers13@gmail.com.
