Private cabins and rooms in the house cost $175. Communal space for sleeping in the zendo is $50. Housing totals include Wednesday night through Sunday. If funds are tight\, just give what you can. If they’re really tight\, consider yourself our guest. You’re always welcome — no one will be turned away for lack of funds.As has been our tradition\, dana (donations) for teachers is not expected but always appreciated. \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n Schedule \n \n \n \n TBD \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n Here is an example schedule from Thursday–Friday\, January 8th–9th7–8 am:zazen8–9:30 am:breakfast\, cleanup\, and jundo9:30–10 am:service10–11:30 am:zazen and daisan11:30 am–1 pm:samu1–2:30 pm:lunch\, cleanup\, and jundo2:30–3:30 pm:rest3:30–5:30 pm:zazen and daisan5:30–7 pm:dinner\, cleanup\, and jundo7 pm–end:zazen and dharma talk \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n\n \n Add to calendar \n \n \n\n \n \n \n Google Calendar\n\n \n iCalendar\n\n \n Outlook 365\n\n \n Outlook Live\n\n \n \n\n \n \n\n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n All Events URL:https://www.treetopzencenter.org/event/summer-sesshin-2026/ LOCATION:Treetop Zen Center\, 293 Country Club Road\, Oakland\, 04963\, United States CATEGORIES:All Events,Sesshins ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/jpeg:https://www.treetopzencenter.org/wp-content/uploads/2025/01/Chng-Kiah-Kiean.jpg END:VEVENT END:VCALENDAR
