Sweetwater Zen Center

To study the Buddha way is to study the self.
To study the self is to forget the self.
To forget the self is to be enlightened by all things.
~Dogen Zenji

In this time of division and violence, meditation along with the Zen teachings of non-duality and love can have a great effect on our culture and our world. Giving is a fundamental aspect of our practice. We learn that letting go of attachments is the path to true liberation.
