Residence Opportunities: Berlin

The Berlin Zen Center can host up to 6 resident Zen Students, depending on the current occupancy (please ask berlin@kwanumzen.de).  The residents commit to join morning practice daily (5.30 am – 7.15 am) and evening practice twice a week (Tuesday and Friday).  They also participate in weekend retreats.

The Center is located directly in the city with good transport connection and many cheap shopping facilities.  The residents clean the Zen Center regularly.

The guiding teacher and abbot of the Berlin Zen Center, Gu Ja SSN, does not live in the Zen Center but attends evening practice regularly.  Kongan interviews with Zen Master Gu Ja or another teacher take place every alternate Wednesday and Friday.
