BU Zen is a student-run meditation group. We practice meditation techniques from the Kwan Um School of Zen, a Buddhist tradition originating in Korea. At weekly Wednesday meetings, our advisor and Senior Dharma teacher at the Cambridge Zen Center, Barbara Feldman, guides us through a series of mindful movement, deep relaxation, and meditation. We end our meetings with a brief reading from various Zen teachings, followed by social time for tea and cookies.
We find that meditation helps us develop concentration, compassion, wisdom, and clarity. Whether you are a complete beginner or an experienced meditator, we would love for you to join us!
