Entering the Path of Practice

The three modules of EPP incorporate zazen, lectures, readings, training in temple practice forms, discussions in various formats, and peer-led meetings among program participants. Each module is organized around one of the Three Treasures of Zen Buddhist teaching: Buddha, (great teachers and practitioners of the Way), Dharma (teachings and practice) and Sangha (the community of practitioners). The modules are not consecutive, but are scheduled over the course of more than a year.
