"Ascending the Mountain Ceremony"
These Teachings and the craft of this practice, which we have inherited through Zentatsu Myoyu, Richard Baker Roshi, is the greatest treasure I know. It has the power to turn suffering into compassion, self-centeredness into shared aliveness, and longings into realizations.
We will be streaming from Thursday, Sep 5, from around 6 PM CET until Sunday, Sep 8, around 11 AM CET. If you register, you will be able to join the online stream at any time during this weekend. You will also find a bunch of informative material to browse through. We are looking forward to seeing you online!
‘Lineage’ loosely means a shared view. More specifically, it means descent from a common ancestor. And in the context of traditional Zen practice, ‘lineage’ means a realizational tradition, developed by and evolved within a lineage of Dharma Ancestors. It’s not in books. It’s an acknowledgement to be part of a lineage, which traditionally would be practiced within shared monastic and temple life.
In this Ceremony, we will install Tatsudo Nicole Roshi in her new role as the Abbot of the Dharma Sangha; we will honour Baker Roshi's life's work - almost 70 years of teaching and pioneering Buddhism in the West!; and it will be a unique opportunity to bring practitioners from various lineages together, who will otherwise seldomly have a chance to connect.

.. is a lifetime practice, a nourishing, beneficial, craft of living. Existence. It’s multi-generational. It's a lineage-teaching – and it's lived through living within a lifetime, within one’s own and with others' lifetimes.
