Zen 
Center of Las Cruces The Zen Center of Las Cruces (Daibutsuji Zen Temple) is in the lineage of Rev. Soyu Matsuoka-Roshi. We offer instruction and community fellowship to students interested in learning and practicing the Buddha Way. Everyone is welcome, whether they come from a different Buddhist tradition, another religion, or no religion at all.

Zen is direct pointing to Reality. Zen practice is to develop strong concentration through meditation, deep wisdom through insight, and human openness through kindness and compassion.

Rev. Michael LaTorra (Dharma name: So [Rev.] Gozen [Strong Zen]) is Abbot of the Zen Center and an Assistant Professor of English at NMSU. We are located at, 706 S Mesquite St., Las Cruces, NM 88001.
1) Take Lohman Ave. to Mesquite St. and go south 2 blocks.

Services are Sunday mornings 10 am: chanting, meditation, Dharma talk and Wednesday evening 7 pm: chanting, meditation, Dharma talk & personal interview with Zen priest (optional).
