Creston Zendo

Creston, British Columbia

The flame of compassion is an inexhaustible lamp and it burns in each one of us. Peaceful relations rise out of compassion like wild flowers rise out of wind-scattered seeds. Zen training fuses compassion with skillful means.

At ZenWords Zen Centre we do this in three ways: we offer traditional Zen practice at Creston Zendo, we operate Maitri House, a nonsectarian social service centre and we teach Zen Writing Practice through face to-face and online workshops.
