Spiritual Director: Peter Seishin Wohl
Notes and Events:
Zen teacher and Registered Maine Guide Peter Seishin Wohl leads periodic wilderness retreats combining elements of ecopsychology and traditional Zen practice to bring about a profound transformation in participants’ experience of the natural world and of themselves. The practice of zazen (Zen meditation) coupled with nature-connecting exercises opens participants to experience the world more intimately and directly. This realization – that the woods, waters, and mountains are none other than our own body, and that every plant and animal is unique and sacred – is the common thread that unifies Zen Buddhism and Deep Ecology.
Moosis is not a Zen center in the traditional sense. There are no members, and no regular services or sitting schedule. Members of other Zen centers, as well as those with little or no experience with Zen practice, are welcome to attend any weekend retreat and take the insights gained back with them to their own homes, workplaces, churches, or practice centers.
Moosis means “little moose” in the Abenaki language. The name was chosen to recognize those first peoples of these beautiful lands, as well as the calm, dignified nature of Maine’s largest mammal.
