If you come to one of our Centers for the first time we invite you to have an introduction to our style of Zen meditation first. Please view Centers / Groups for more information.
The Kwan Um Schoof of Zen Germany is a non-profit organization and we maintain us financially with membership fees, income from renting some of our rooms, practice fees and donations.
So we kindly ask you for paying a practice fee of about 5€ each time you come to meditate with us (also morning practice). You can pay in cash and for Zen Center Berlin also via paypal: kuzsde@gmail.com
Alternatively you can become a member (20€/month. Reduced fee 15€). Members do not pay any practice fee and get a discount on retreats.
Here you can download our membership contract (in German) which you can fill in and send via email to info@kwanumzen.de or to the contact person of your local sangha (see the site “groups”). You can also fill it in on paper in your Zen Center and give it to the abbot of your group.
