The Covid situation is quite fluid. We are following the Washington State regulations and will continuously update our policies to conform. We are hopeful that we will be able to conduct our May 2022 Osesshin but recognize that our plans, as well as the dates, may need to change suddenly and without notice. For those purchasing airline tickets please be prepared to cancel your reservations. *We recommend that persons who are immunocompromised or have chronic medical issues not attend this practice period. *Please consider that the monastery does not have any facilities available to isolate should you become ill and does not have staff to assist in your care if you become ill. If you are not able to continue with the Osesshin schedule you will need to find a place to quarantine outside of the monastery. *There is no financial aid available for the Osesshin. *There may be a waitlist for this Osesshin. Those on the waitlist will be contacted immediately as spaces become available. Thank you, Rozan Lenny Gerson Osesshin registrar Tahoma Zen Monastery |
