SUMMARY:CLOSED: Great Summer Sesshin with John Tarrant & Friends - Creatures of the Summer Dawn
DESCRIPTION:Creatures of the Summer Dawn \n\nGreat Summer Sesshin\nIn Person with John Tarrant & PZI Teachers \n\nSanta Sabina Retreat Center\nin Northern California\nJune 12–18\, 2023 \nFox and buffalo\, dogs and flesh eating demons\, ghosts\, people divided into two beings\, tigers who befriend Chan masters\, dragons\, learned tea ladies—all appear in our koan stories. Also there are refugees\, exiles\, widows\, people having secret love affairs\, all creatures of the summer dawn\, each having their place in the totality of things. And their beauty too. \nIt’s good to spend time with people who aren’t people\, and people who are. \nIn the Zen tradition\, animals and demons and ghosts all have buddha nature and there are koans about their journeys\, which are like ours. I had a dog who came out at night to sit with me\, leaning against my body as we sat. I have had other wild creatures\, such as echidnas\, birds\, and snakes approach me while sitting. \nWhen I went to visit a friend in Mendocino\, a raven swooped low to greet us. I nodded and we went in. Great horned owls and red-tailed hawks occupy the trees around our temple home and note\, and sometimes comment on\, our comings and goings. \nAll these creatures are present in our waking consciousness\, but also they move around and call for us in our dreams and sleep. They occupy a place in the deeps where we enter the koan lands. \nJoin us for an exploration of our own true nature. \n—John Tarrant \n\n\nOur Summer Sesshin: \nThere will be personal interviews and deep meditation\, teaching talks and some conversations\, old friends and new\, brilliant teachers\, music\, great enlightenment\, mistakes\, and delight. \nThis is an extended 7-day & 6-night in-person gathering beginning Monday June 12th at 4:30 pm\, and completing Sunday June 18th at 12:00 pm. \n\n—with PZI Teachers: John Tarrant\, Allison Atwill\, Tess Beasley\, Jon Joseph\n& David Weinstein \n \n—with HOP Michelle Riddle & Registrar Marion Yakoushkin \n\n\n\n \nWhere: Santa Sabina Retreat Center in Northern California: \nSanta Sabina Center\n25 Magnolia Ave\nSan Rafael\, CA 94901 \n\nRetreat registration includes free access to PZI Summer Open Temple morning meditations. \n\n\nDear PZI Friends\, \nIn sesshin we come together with PZI members\, teachers\, musicians\, and those new to PZI. We can discover things which we could not discover alone. It’s nice to have each other as we find our way. Thank you for all you offer to PZI. \n—PZI Board President Tess Beasley Sensei & Director John Tarrant Roshi\, & All of us at PZI \n\n
