Becoming a Kanzeon Big Mind Member
Do I have to be a Member?
No. Almost everything we offer is open to the public and you can sign up easily by clicking on the event that interests you anytime. All of our Classes and Retreats on Zoom are warm, friendly and very interactive between the Teachers and students. You don't have to have any background in Zen and topics are discussed in plain language. Check out our Events Menu or the Calendars Menu above to see what's available. If you are new, try out a Sunday Talk with Genpo Roshi, or attend one of our Living Zen classes on Tuesdays and Thursdays with Genpo Roshi's Successor Teachers for only $10.
You can also arrange one on one time with Genpo Roshi by contacting Bruce Lambson.
However, Kanzeon Big Mind Membership comes with some serious benefits!
- A regular schedule of events and closer contact with teachers helps keep your practice on track.
- The price of Membership is much cheaper than paying for all these Classes and Retreats individually.
- Members have access to our Media Archive of over 3,700 audio and video recordings of classes, from our latest content clear back to the 1970's. It's an amazing resource for serious Zen students and you can watch and learn on your own time.
- For a Subscription to just our Media Archive for $25 per month click here.
