Way Seeking Mind Talks

December 26, 2025

In the new year, we’re beginning a special event series in lieu of our regular Wednesday Dharma Share. Each Wednesday from January 14 through March 4, 2026 Jukai students will present Way-Seeking Mind talks as part of their preparation for receiving the Zen Buddhist precepts. In these intimate offerings, students share what brought them to the path of practice. All are welcome to attend and support these students on their journey.

Livestream: The talks will also be live-streamed. For security reasons, we do not post zoom links publicly. Please sign up to “This Week at BZC” mailing list to receive the log in information.
