The network presents itself

Our network regularly (re-)defines itself through a text of which this is the latest version.

Zen Simply Sitting

Zen Simply Sitting is a network of sanghas, former disciples of Maître Deshimaru and more recent practitioners.

They want to combine their energies and experience to facilitate the spread of the practice and teaching transmitted in the lineage of Masters Taisen Deshimaru, Kodo Sawaki and their Soto Zen predecessors.

Zen Simply Sitting is a shared space for meeting and thinking, in order to protect zazen from being influenced by trends or institutions.

We are organising different events specially a sesshin for the occasion of the anniversary of Master Deshimaru’s death; Mokudo Sesshin following the spirit of the original Sangha.
