Daoren means “person of the way.” In Soto practice, the way is always right before us. The Daoren Circle seek to practice the way wholeheartedly within our everyday lives through the Mahayana practice of vow. Daoren commit to a year of practice with common vows as well as optional individual vow(s). Members of Dharma Rain who have taken the precepts, who have participated in the term student program, and have attended at least one sesshin, are eligible to join.
