Sokuji is a Zen Buddhist community located in Bemidji Minnesota. We embrace the image of the “frozen lotus”, surviving intense deep winters, blossoming in summer with roots in the mud, both beautiful and hardy!

We gather weekly for silent sitting meditation followed by tea and conversation focusing on how Zen practice supports healthy relationships with ourselves, other people, and all of life.

Zazen is moving to Sunday mornings starting April 19th.  Join us for our practice of zazen.

Book Discussion will be the third Thursday in April, the 16th as usual, then move to the third Sunday morning in May starting May 17th.  Use the Sunday morning zazen link below for zazen and book discussion.
