Ishiryo Steven Carr, our current resident-in-training, will be hosting Zen meditation each Tuesday evening at ASZC, starting at 7 PM. Please plan to join.

The format will be the same as for our weekday morning meditation schedule, namely two half-hour sittings with walking meditation in between, followed by a brief chanting service, featuring the Heart Sutra in English and Japanese on alternate evenings.

No fee is required but donations are welcome and appreciated, as always.

Dr. Carr is in residence at Atlanta Soto Zen Center through mid-April on ango, the traditional 90-day practice period. His day job is research and teaching evolutionary genetics and biotechnology, at Memorial University of Newfoundland, Canada. He is working on a project with Georgia Tech.

Ishiryo ("beyond thinking") is a long-time student and beginner in Zen. He has previously practiced with the Kwan Um Zen School in Berkeley, CA and with the Diamond Sangha under Roshi Robert Aitken in Honolulu, HI.

You are invited to participate in person at the ASZC Zendo, or you may join the zoom call.
