Under the Twin Sara Trees, the World-Honored-One passed away. Seven days had already passed when Mahakasyapa arrived. He walked around the coffin three times, then put his palms together and bowed. The World-Honored-One suddenly put his feet out of the coffin. Then Mahakasyapa bowed with great respect. Everyone was amazed.
A student asked the master, "What is the essence of putting his feet out of the coffin?" The master said,
Wind blows, mind tree is swaying.

The Honora Zen Monastery is currently only open for consultation hours by appointment only. The meditation stay is exclusively available to those who have already completed a retreat week or friends of the family.
Zen Master Reding and his three boys are looking for a good, loyal, trustworthy and faithful soul for the Zen monastery and the family. Contact us without obligation. Contact us anytime.
The balancing act between running a monastery and family life is not always easy to master. The Honora Zen Monastery is therefore looking for an additional home so that both can be carried out more easily. Such as a castle, a hotel, a monastery, a farm, a seminar house or similar properties for the monastery.
