Summer Retreats 2019- Meditation and Buddhism

 

Several retreat periods are offered this summer at the Ryumonji Buddhist monastery (Alsace - France), including a reduced rate for 3 weeks of Zen Buddhism and meditation (zazen). Throughout the summer, beginners are welcome: a special welcome is organized with a monk or nun referent.

Since the time of the Buddha, certain times of the year are devoted to spiritual retreats. They originally corresponded to the rainy season. It is a wonderful opportunity to withdraw from the world to deepen or learn the practice of Zen.

Throughout the summer, beginners are welcome: a special welcome is organized with a monk or nun referent.

The teaching will be given by Buddhist master Reigen Wang-Genh, assisted by confirmed monks and nuns.
