Earth+Sky Zen Dublin

Earth+Sky Zen Dublin A Zen group based in North Inner City Dublin. We practice sitting meditation six times a week in our dojo located on Gardiner St Upper. All are welcome.

If coming for the first time, come on a Sunday evening at 5:40pm. The Irish Zen Group has been active since 1991 and has four practice centres (dojos), in Galway, Dublin, Cork and Limerick. We focus on the practice of zazen (sitting meditation), and we are open to everyone interested in taking up the practice of meditation. We practice according to the Soto Zen tradition, as transmitted by the monk Taisen Deshimaru, who brought Zen from Japan to Europe in 1967. Deshimaru was a disciple of Kodo Sawaki. Alain Liebmann is the leader of our group. A Zen monk with 35 years experience of meditation, he is one of Deshimaru's original disciples.
