THE ORDER OF CLEAR MIND ZEN

|---|
The Order of Clear Mind Zen is a Socially Engaged Zen Teaching
Order. We are headquartered in Las Cruces, New Mexico and have
affiliates in Texas and California. The foundation of our practice
is seated meditation (Zazen).
Our Engaged Zen Services
Bearing Witness in Public Spaces: The Buddha lived outdoors. He
practiced in open, public spaces, offering himself as teacher,
healer, and was a model of deep love, compassion, and wisdom. We
practice street Zen as a means of bearing witness for peace,
non-violence, and abundant good. We practice Zazen on sidewalks,
in parks, and other open spaces offering basic meditation
instruction in the process.
Hospice Care: Several of our sangha members provide hospice care
to dying people and respite care to their loved ones. Hospice is a
very special practice requiring serious commitment. Training at
two of our local hospice organizations is available.
Peace Making and Educational Services: Our Order has been
providing meditation instruction to Peace Village of Las Cruces
for over five years. We also offer meditation classes to any who
request them.
Prison Dharma: Prison work is exceptionally challenging. From
gaining access to the challenges of the prison populations
themselves, this work is not for those without a solid practice
and ability to set and maintain clear boundaries.
