* At Jikoji & On Zoom *

Join us as we spend an extended weekend honoring the memory of Jikoji's founder, Kobun Chino Otogawa Roshi. Our Kobun memorial will be held at Jikoji and will be available over Zoom.

We begin with a social dinner, followed by some periods of sitting. Our formal program starts on Friday with a full day of sesshin-style sitting. Saturday continues with our sesshin format throughout the lunch period. After lunch, our traditional afternoon Kobun Readings begin, with a discussion of selections from the Kobun Archive.

Our special Kobun weekend continues into Sunday morning. During our regular Dharma Talk, we will hold our traditional Memorial Service and Procession to the Kobun memorial site, offering incense while chanting the Daihi Shin Dharani.
