Yale Law School had received quite a bit of media attention because of its introduction of a dog students could "check out" of the library for a few hours. Petting the dog was supposed to reduce the stress of the paper chase and the downsized legal marketplace they would be entering.
Unfortunately, though, the impact of the dog encounter is not sustainable. What Yale Law students learn in zen practice is.
And they can learn plenty and for no fee (donations welcome) at the Saturday, March 16th "Introduction to Zen Practice." It's scheduled for arrival between 9:30 A.M. and 10 A.M.
At 10 A.M. the event starts promptly and continues until 3:30 P.M. The location is the New Haven Zen Center, 193 Mansfield Street, New Haven, Connecticut.
Those attending will experience:
Sitting Meditation Walking Meditation Chanting Work Meditation Formal Temple Meal To Practice Mindful Eating and Talks about Zen.
From then on students can swing by the New Haven Zen Center every Sunday morning and every Wednesday evening for meditation, at no cost (donations welcome). There are also retreats in Providence, Rhode Island.
