“To study the buddha way is to study the self. To study the self is to forget the self. To forget the self is to be actualized by myriad things” Dogen
Come sit with us
We are closed for meditation on Sunday 22nd and 29th of November until further notice. The Adelaide Zen Group normally holds sitting meditation in the Hatha Yoga Centre. 172 Hutt St Adelaide, S.A. Please check our calendar for details.
Our sangha
The Adelaide Zen Group belongs to the lay tradition of the Diamond Sangha in Hawaii, and follows the form of practice originating there.
The Diamond Sangha, especially through the teaching of Aitken Roshi and his successors, places a strong emphasis on Zen practice in everyday life and highlights the important roles that relationships, work, families and all the ordinary conditions of life have to play in meditation practice (and vice versa).
Our teachers
The Adelaide Zen Group currently has three teachers:
- Robert Joyner Roshi
- Imelda Carson, our apprentice teacher
- Allan Marett Roshi
