When Shunryu Suzuki, one of the most famous contemporary Zen teachers was asked his philosophy he used just three words …. ‘Not necessarily so’

In saying this he encapsulated the core teaching on offer for meditators that one should hold everything gently and leave space around even the most seemingly obvious truths. 


Life is always much more layered and subtle than we are able to see and by consciously acknowledging that we don’t have things all figured out we paradoxically move closer to the way things really are …..


So to sit more fully and contentedly with your own life come and join us for meditation this week:


Thursday     7 - 8.30 pm
