The Do Not Kill precept is the first in our Ten Grave Precepts and is obviously an important one. Yet trying to keep this precept is not an easy task. How about a just war? How about eating meat? How about cockroaches in our kitchen? How about talking down a friend who is excited about a cause that you think is wrong-headed? Let’s talk about how we grapple with this precept in our daily life. Please join us for the 7-Up group this Saturday as Daicho initiates the discussion.

Designed to address the needs of senior practitioners in the community, this discussion group is open to DRZC members who have had at least seven years of practice in a meditation tradition. Not all of the years accrued have to have been at Dharma Rain, or even in the Zen tradition. Participants take turns introducing topics and facilitating the monthly meetings. The aim is for real and considered engagement without intellectualizing.
