Why don't you and your child take a moment during your summer vacation to take a little peek into the world of Zen at a small, historic zazen meeting in a quiet residential area near Shinjuku?　Sometimes the experiences we have in our childhood become memories that last a lifetime. We have planned this event in the hope of providing such an irreplaceable opportunity. On the day of the event, you will experience a short zazen session, a Zen talk by the abbot, and Zen calligraphy. Women will be on hand to provide support.

Once a month on Sunday mornings, we hold a 15-minute zazen session followed by a 30-minute Dharma talk by the head priest in the formal tea room of Kobo-in, a temple of the Rinzai Tenryu-ji school located in Nakano Ward, Tokyo, near Shinjuku. During the tea gathering that follows, the head priest will answer any questions you may have.
