EMPTY MOON ZEN Encountering Spirituality Today

Welcome to our Empty Moon Zen YouTube channel.

Our videos explore the depths of an authentic spiritual life in our time. Deeply rooted within the Zen traditions, we are also concerned with respectful adaptations of Zen Buddhism to our Western cultures. We find a sympathetic dialogue with other traditions, particularly the Abrahamic faiths, nondual spiritualities, mythology, modern psychology, especially depth psychology, as well as emerging naturalistic appreciations of religion, including Unitarian Universalism.

Empty Moon teachers include our Guiding Teacher, Rev. Ed Sanshin Oberholtzer, Roshi; our Founding Teacher, Rev. James Ishmael Ford (Myoun Roshi); Dharma Holders, Rev. Janine Seitetsu Larsen, Tom Daimon Wardle, and Mo Myokan Weinhardt, 
and Chris Hoff; and Dharma Teachers, Jan Seymour-Ford and Dr. Chris Kanshin Hoff. They are joined by other teachers, principally on the Zen way in our growing archive of talks.
