Our mission is to realize our oneness and relieve suffering through contemplative social action.
Rather than approaching racism as a problem to solve or an idea to analyze, this retreat invites participants to suspend assumptions, release fixed views, and listen — to the places we visit, to one another, and to ourselves.

Not knowing is not a failure. It is a practice.
When we stop assuming we are right, when we pause and truly bear witness, clarity arises naturally and action follows.Join the Zen Peacemakers and put words into action.

Not knowing loosens our grip on certainty and invites humility, curiosity, and deeper listening. From that space, new possibilities for compassionate action can arise.

This teaching invites us to slow down and trust what is already here. When we practice equanimity, we accept the truth of the moment and meet life just as it is—without striving, without judgment.

What shifts when we stop defending our positions and simply stay present with what is?
This teaching invites us to notice how much of our suffering is created by separation and judgment—and how freedom arises when those habits soften.

Dogma can offer structure, but faith requires lived experience. It asks us to step beyond inherited forms and into direct relationship—with ourselves, with one another, and with the world as it is.

Each moment invites us to take part in the universe’s ongoing act of creation. Awareness becomes participation — every breath, every act of compassion, every step forward a brushstroke in the unfolding masterpiece.

Desire can be its own illusion — we cling to longing because fulfillment feels fleeting. Yet the heart of Zen practice invites us to simply be with what is, without needing it to stay or change.
