The DePaul University Zen Society
Weekly Meetings
The Zen Society is a recognized student organization (with guidance from DePaul University Ministry) meeting weekly on the DePaul University Chicago Lincoln Park campus. Anyone is welcome. There are no fees or dues. Our sole purpose is to support each other in the practice of Zen, and to explore how the Zen teachings can positively impact our lives. We're a friendly and open group, so bring your questions and don't be shy!
Meetings typically begin with one or more periods of zazen (meditation), followed by group discussion. If you've never meditated before, we'll teach you: please arrive a few minutes early, since meditation begins promptly at 5:30pm
Our teacher, Meido Moore Roshi, is a Zen priest and has received dharma transmission (inka shomei) in the Japanese Rinzai line. If you'd like to contact him directly, please go to the "Contact Us" page.
Meeting Time: Tuesday evenings, 5:30-6:45pm
Location: On the Lincoln Park Campus at the Student Center, Interfaith Sacred Space (Room 102)

What to Wear/Bring: Loose, comfortable clothing is best (you'll be sitting crosslegged on the floor, so tight pants are not good). We generally have enough meditation cushions, but bringing your own cushions if owned (or a few pillows) is helpful.
Please help us by forwarding this site to anyone you think may be interested!
