Dharma Sound Zen Center

Welcome!

Dharma Sound Zen Center has recently evolved into two new organizations, each of which will carry forward the teaching tradition of Zen Master Seung Sahn. We encourage you to visit either or both of these wonderful groups.

Ocean Light Zen Center

Ocean Light Zen Center retains Dharma Sound Zen Center’s 26-year affiliation with the Kwan Um School of Zen. As guiding teacher, Zen Master Soeng Hyang (Barbara Rhodes) directs training and our local teacher, Tim Lerch, JDPSN, gives talks and interviews on a regular basis. We now meet weekly on Thursdays at 7PM at the Mercer Island Community Center. Additional opportunities through the worldwide KUSZ Sangha include 21- and 90-day retreats, residential study in Korea, and the Whole World is a Single Flower conference and tour. For schedules and more information visit our web site at http://www.oceanlightzen.org.

Blue Heron Zen Community

Zen Master Ji Bong, Dharma Sound Zen Center’s guiding teacher for the last 22 years and a dharma heir of Zen Master Seung Sahn, directs teaching at Blue Heron Zen Community. In addition, the founding student of Dharma Sound Zen Center, Jeff Tipp, JDPSN, actively teaches within the community. We host weekly Zen practice in Seattle and Tacoma, along with monthly retreats, workshops, and discussion groups in both locations. For schedules and more information, visit our web site at http://www.blueheronzen.org, or e-mail info@blueheronzen.org.
