Open Sound Zen Community is a Zen practice group that offers meditation sessions online via Zoom, as well as in-person in the Seattle Magnolia neighborhood. We practice Zen to meet the concerns, experiences, and styles of the world today.
Does it seem that the world is out of control? Do you know inside yourself that there must be something more stable and fulfilling? Have you tried meditation and wished for stronger or more committed practice?
Zen practice is a path to find your own answers to urgent questions about life.
Zen practice helps us to realize and manifest the true nature inherent in each one of us. By doing so, we improve our own lives and the whole world around us.
At Open Sound Zen, we won't — and no one can — give you answers. Instead, we are here to help you find and experience answers for yourself. We invite you to join us in Zen practice!
Zen practice is most beneficial when group practice is combined with individual practice, in a way that works for each person.
Our practice offerings occur in two overlapping communities:
Online: visit Tech Community Zen
Seattle: visit the Magnolia Zen Group [coming soon, July 2026]
