SUMMARY:Practicing the Ways Retreat
DESCRIPTION:This retreat co-led by Patrice Koelsch and Onryu Kennedy will continue to integrate and connect the ways of Buddhist practice in Vipassana and Zen. \n\n\n\nIn this retreat\, we will explore ancient and contemporary Buddhist teachings on how practitioners can skillfully relate to the polycrises of today’s world. \n\n\n\nSuggested readings will be posted later. \n\n\n\nAll levels are welcome! \n\n\n\nRetreat Leaders \n\n\n\n\nFormally trained with a Ph.D. in Philosophy\, Patrice Koelsch began sitting at Common Ground Meditation Center in 1995. Patrice is a graduate of Spirit Rock’s Community Dharma Leaders Program\, and completed a year-long Buddhist Chaplaincy Training Program at the Sati Center for Buddhist Studies. She has practiced meditation at monasteries in Thailand and Myanmar. Patrice has provided hands-on care for persons in the last stages of HIV/AIDS\, and worked for many years in HIV education and client support services. For more than 2 decades she has been facilitating meditation groups in correctional facilities. She is on the Board of the Minnesota Multifaith Network\, and volunteers with ISAIAH and Faith in Minnesota to bring about a multicultural democracy\, a caring economy\, and a just climate future. \n\n\n\n\n\nRev. Onryu Kennedy has received transmission in both the Katagiri and Uchiyama Roshi lineages. In 2019 and 2020\, she attended three month practice periods at Toshoji International Zen Center (Japan) and in 2017 at Tassajara Zen Mountain Center (California).  In the Spring 2020 practice period at Toshoji she was Shuso\, head monk for the practice period. She completed zuise in January 2023. And in February 2024 her application for Kokusaifukuyoshi was approved by the Japanese Sotochu. \n\n\n\nThroughout her life she has valued social justice work as an expression of her vow. She is currently an Associate teacher at Hokyoji Zen Practice Community.  She experiences great joy in the opportunity to learn and teach Buddhist practices. \n\n\n\n\nRegistration fees cover lodging and food.
