The Buffalo Zen Dharma Community continues to grow

When the isolation brought on by COVID ended and the Buffalo Zen Dharma Community started meeting in person again, we started with only a few people coming to our Tuesday night programs and our half-day monthly Saturday morning meditation (zazen) intensives.  Now we have grown to having 20-30 people attending our Tuesday night programs and we have 73 people on our Google Group contact list

This last week, we had a visiter from the Blue Plum Zendo Group which is an informal affiliate of the Mountains and Rivers Order of Zen Buddhism in Johnson City, Tennessee.  Ms. Polly Kiho Horne is the facilitator of that group.  She was visiting family in the Buffalo area for the holidays.  She also has attended video meetings with Ron Hogen Green with members of the Buffalo Zen Dharma Community.

​Also, coming regularly is Mr. Lee Carlson who is the author of the #1 best selling book on Amazon in "Zen Philosophy," "Personal Transformation & Spirituality," "Philosophy and Spiritual Growth," "Men's Personal Spiritual Growth," and "Spiritual Healing."  

Besides these exciting developments and the start of the Zazenkai events, and outdoor events, our hope is to eventually have an information talk by one of our members Mike Kicey about Buddhism and to have an official teacher of the MRO come to Buffalo for a retreat like we used to do in the past.  So for the latest developments, please periodically check our blog page.
