Zen Center of Kansas Draws Believers To Quiet Retreat
The Lawrence Zen Center, founded in 1978, hosts about twenty members seeking compassion through Zen meditation. Cary de Wit recalls his journey from adolescence to a homecoming in the practice, while Zen teacher Stanley Lombardo explains that in Zen each person becomes the savior of all beings. The studio space is serene and dim as practitioners gather, removing shoes and entering a calm, ordered routine.
