Zen master Basho said to his disciples, ''If you have a staff, I will give you a staff. If you have no staff, I will take it from you."
lt helps me wade across a river when the bridge is down. It accompanies me to the village on a
moonless night. If you call it a staff, you will enter hell like an arrow.
The depths and shallows of the world Are all in its grasp. It supports the heavens and sustains the earth. Everywhere, it enhances the doctrine.
© 2024 Honora Zen Monastery
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.
