Rohatsu Retreat
Led by Mary Ellen Seien Roshi, Lynn Shozen Roshi,
Charlotte Jigen Sensei along with Mark Kanchi Roshi
with a Live Zoom Dharma Talk by Genpo Roshi
on December 8th, Buddha's Enlightenment Day
The history of Rohatsu is that Buddha sat under the Bodhi Tree from December 1st until December 8th and glancing up at the morning planet Venus he had a profound and complete enlightenment, realizing the one Unborn Buddha Mind that we all inherently possess from birth.
Seien Roshi, Shozen Roshi, Jigen Sensei along with Kanchi Roshi invite you to Rohatsu Retreat in Salt Lake City in person and virtually. We will be hosting this as a fundraising event for Kanzeon. We are asking for Dana, our goal is to raise $20,000 to support the organization. Dana is based on you're ability to donate and the value you place on receiving the teaching. It is also an expression of your appreciation and gratitude for the many years of teaching by Genpo Roshi. For information please contact Chet Cannon. Your generosity is greatly appreciated.
The four of us very much look forward to sitting and being together with you in person or virtually, and sharing this powerful week celebrating Buddha’s enlightenment.
We will be joined on December 8th (Buddha's Enlightenment Day) by Genpo Roshi on zoom from the Big Island of Hawaii.
