North Oxfordshire Zen Group was created to allow people in North Oxfordshire and surrounding areas to practice traditional Zen Buddhism.

Our parent temple is Dai Bai Zan Cho Bo Zen Ji (Chobo-ji), in the Rinzai Gigen – Hakuin Ekaku Zenji Dharma Line and was founded by Zen Master Genki Takabayashi, in Seattle, USA, in 1983. Genjo Marinello Oshō succeeded Genki Roshi in 1999 as the second abbot of Chobo-ji.

Meetings are on Thursdays at 7pm,  practicing primarily ’silent awareness’ or shikantaza zazen meditation, walking meditation and dedication liturgy. There are also Zen retreats and other Zen-related events in the region on occasion.

Instruction for beginners is available.

Main Contact: Bhikkhu H, Ñāṇasuvi  Email  
Notes and Events:

Path Press is a non-profit entity, which handles legal matters and holds the copyrights of all Ven. Ñāṇavīra Thera’s writings together with writings of Ven. Bodhesako and Sister Vajirā. It was founded in Sri Lanka in 1987 by Ven. Bodhesako. It is an entity with a small group of 4 bhikkhus and 3 layman (upāsakas) who are aspiring to make the late Ven. Ñāṇavīra Thera’s teachings more available for those who are interested.

‘Path Press’ was a name of convenience, originally intended to include those who, through the years, have contributed their various talents to bring Clearing the Path to realization. Path Press was not planned to be an ongoing publishing house. However, it now turns out that there remains sufficient worthwhile material from the writings of the Venerable Ñāṇavīra Thera to issue other volumes to the present work; and there are a few other writings, unpublished or now out of print, which, like Clearing the Path, are of high quality, worthy of publication or reprinting. Therefore it was established a publishing house, called ‘Path Press Publications’ (www.pathpresspublications.com).
