Welcome to Sanshin Source!
This is Sanshin Zen Community's library of context and in-depth information about our style of practice. Although the information arises directly from our sangha's practice in the zendo and is collected here primarily to support that practice, anyone is welcome to peruse and study our resources as our collection continues to grow. Items not linked below are still under construction. Sanshin Source is a partner site to our main site, where you'll find schedules and calendars, event registration, tools for giving, and information on our temple and sangha. |

Special topics
|
Every year we take up a particular area of exploration that helps us to answer this question: Why do we practice the way we do? We began with a specific focus on the immediate influences on our style of practice, then gradually broadened our view. Throughout the year we create and collect resources about the topic that engage areas across the practice vision, and these resources remain freely available for anyone who wants to dig in.
