We hope it links us up with those interested in practicing mindfulness and meditation. We welcome all who want to learn more about meditation. Our small group of practitioners is committed to Zen practice and teachings. People from all over Malta come to try meditation, learn about mindfulness and more importantly, to learn how to do sitting meditation (zazen) well.Kanzeon Maltahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/04235985608113639624noreply@blogger.comBlogger41100tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5835060442640109501.post-27257278989424319702011-12-23T12:51:00.002+01:002011-12-23T12:59:55.693+01:00<div dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;" trbidi="on"><span style="background-color: white; font-family: verdana, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt;">Friends,</span><br /><div class="gmail_quote"><div><div style="background-color: white; color: black; font-family: verdana,helvetica,sans-serif; font-size: 12pt;"><div><div><div style="background-color: white; color: black; font-family: verdana,helvetica,sans-serif; font-size: 12pt;"><div><div><div style="background-color: white; color: black; font-family: verdana,helvetica,sans-serif; font-size: 12pt;"><div><div><div style="background-color: white; color: black; font-family: verdana,helvetica,sans-serif; font-size: 12pt;"><div><div><div><div style="background-color: white; color: black; font-family: verdana,helvetica,sans-serif; font-size: 12pt;"><div><div><div style="background-color: white; color: black; font-family: times new roman,new york,times,serif; font-size: 12pt;"><div style="line-height: normal; margin: 0in 0in 0pt;"><span style="color: black; font-size: 12pt;"></span> </div><div style="line-height: normal; margin: 0in 0in 0pt;"><span style="color: black; font-size: 12pt;"></span></div><div style="line-height: normal; margin: 0in 0in 0pt;"><span style="color: black; font-size: 12pt;"><br />Our next session is going to be on Thursday 29^th December meeting @ 5.45pm outside commencing at <b>6.00pm sharp</b> and fortnightly thereafter.</span></div><div style="line-height: normal; margin: 0in 0in 0pt;"><span style="color: black; font-size: 12pt;"> </span></div><div style="line-height: normal; margin: 0in 0in 0pt;"><div><span style="color: black; font-size: 12pt;"><br />Please be aware that Sodo has a number of sitting cushions (zafus) and mats (zabutans) for sale at €25 and €35 respectively. </span><span style="color: black; font-size: 10pt;"></span><br /><br /></div><span style="font-weight: bold;">We take this opportunity to extend our best wishes for the New Year 2012.</span><br /><br /></div><div><div style="background: white; line-height: normal; margin: 0in 0in 10pt;"><span style="color: black; font-size: 12pt;"> </span></div><div style="background: white; line-height: normal; margin: 0in 0in 10pt;"><span style="color: black; font-size: 12pt;">Notes:</span></div><div style="background: white; line-height: normal; margin: 0in 0in 10pt;"><span style="color: black; font-size: 12pt;">1.
