Rohatsu 2026

December 8th is regarded as the day the historical Buddha achieved enlightenment. Zen practitioners commemorate this event with Rohatsu (Japanese for 8th day of the 12th month) and typically do extra practice around this time. This year, the Bozeman Zen Group offers a half-day of practice including sitting and walking meditation. Michãel Palmer will give a talk on the six realms and their relationship to enlightenment.

All are welcome, regardless of previous meditation experience.
