The Art of Calligraphy<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

The world of calligraphy in Buddhism is deep and wide. The art of calligraphy is a great teaching, just as a silent retreat or formal practice. The \u201cI\u201d will disappear while drawing. When the Dharma draws, then you will become the Dharma. When drawing Kwan Um, Poe Dae Hwa Sang or Han San, you become one with it. Everyone is welcome, no experiences required.<\/strong><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

We are a small Zen (Korean: Seon) Buddhist community. The initial concept was to form a lay meditation group of Zen practitioners following the Korean Zen (Seon) Buddhist teachings. Our practice is influenced by the teachings of Zen Master Seung Sahn, Zen Master Kusan as well as other meditation teachers like Martine and Stephen Batchelor. We use Zen forms, yet are fluid in our ability to adapt to changes within the form.<\/span><\/p>\n

Living in a sleepy town called Altenstadt, an Administrative District Oberpfalz, in Bavaria Germany, we use a less stringent approach to our practice, placing more emphasis on the development of loving kindness and compassion along with attentiveness to the spiritual growth of each community member. Our Sangha is from various professions and religious backgrounds. We dedicate our lives to religious practice, practice of the Dharma and beneficence to all beings. May all beings realize their true nature!<\/span><\/p>\n

Take a good look at yourself,<\/span><\/strong><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

all truths are within you.<\/span><\/strong><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

To look for truth outside yourself is to search<\/span><\/strong><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

for water outside of the ocean.<\/span><\/strong><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

by Master Seongcheol (1912-1993)<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Our center is a small apartment of approximately 60 square meters. It consists of a tea room (which is also used as the teacher\u2019s room when a teacher is in residence), a fully-equipped kitchen, a bathroom, and of course the Dharma Room. Since the it is located on the ground floor of a house, one can exit to a grassy garden straight out of the tea room. The usage of this apartment was graciously donated by Gerlinde Grunt\u2019s life partner, who despite being a Buddhist nor a Zen practitioner, saw the value and merit of giving rentable space free to the service of saving all beings from the mind\u2019s afflictions. The center also has a small lending library of books, CD and DVD collection which is open to all those who seek a deeper commitment to their Zen practice. <\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n
