Being Peace Zendo

Founded in 2007, this home-based practice center provides a small meditation hall for practitioners to sit and practice together. The format of our practice will be based on those practices used at Deer Park Monastery and Plum Village. The practices may change from time to time, but generally will include sitting, walking, chanting, touching the earth, dharma talks, dharma discussion, and other ceremonies. We will use the Plum Village Chanting Book, and other related literature, to guide our reading selection. Though there are many ways to practice Buddhism and meditation, we have chosen Thay as our guide and teacher. Leading the practice will be individuals who have been trained in this tradition. With this as our foundation, exploring the dharma together can still take other forms in our effort to form a community that lives in harmony and awareness.
