Welcome!

The Cleveland Zazen Group, an affiliate of the Rochester Zen Center, has
been meeting together for over 30 years. Presently, we meet in Cleveland Heights. Regular sittings
(meditation) are every Tuesday evening from 7:30-8:30 p.m. Two Sunday mornings a month we meet at
9 a.m. for zazen (sitting meditation) followed by a taped teisho (sermon or dharma talk) by Roshi
Bodhin Kjolhede of the Rochester Zen Center. From 11 to noon, we have brunch together. Periodically,
there are all-day sittings and Introductory Workshops. Introductions to Zen meditation practice can
be arranged for interested individuals.
There are no accidents! If you have come to this website, you have questions about your life, about
pain and suffering, about meaning, peace, or your own personhood. You may have done some
reading on Zen, on Buddhism, or on meditation. But, as the old masters have said "Painted cakes do
not satisfy hunger."
For more information or to get on our e-mail list, please contact Susan or Larry Rakow at
