US Zen Winter Retreat 美國禪學院 歲末禪七 US Zen hosted a 7-day meditation from 12/24-30. More than seventy participants participated throughout the retreat, with more than forty participated full-time. It is by far the largest retreat ever held at US Zen. In addition, the median age of the participants was in the mid-thirty, which is the youngest it has ever been. It was also the first time where the retreat is conducted primarily in English. We hope to continue this trend in 2018. 美國禪學院於 12/24-30 間舉行了七日的禪修，這次活動前後有超過七十位、來自十個州以及來自中國的學員參加，其中約四十位參加全程，是禪學院近年來最大的禪修活動。這次學員的年齡中位數約是三十多歲，是歷年來最年輕的一次，同時這次禪修也是禪堂第一次主要以英文教導。希望於2018年能夠持續保持這趨勢。 |
