MEMBERSHIP @ One River Zen

Become a Member

Membership is so much more than a donation. It creates a bond between you and the Zen Center. One River Zen provides strong support for your practice. By becoming a member, you become a steward of the Sangha, thereby entering the community of practitioners committed to supporting all in awakening.

Student members access the guidance of a teacher in personalized training. This is the foundation of a transformational Zen practice. Patron, Benefactor, and Student memberships all include this access. Studies can take place in-person or online.

ORZ is open to all - regardless of race, creed, color, sexual orientation, or ability to pay. Reach out if you need assistance to participate.

One River Zen has several membership levels designed to help you engage with the Center and enrich your practice:

Before One River Zen I was a mere observer of Zen. However through Sensei’s and the Sangha's guidance and understanding I am on the right path. A wonderful place to practice. Whether Buddhist or not all are welcome here. I am fortunate to call One River Zen my Dharma home.
