Guided Zen
Sunday sessions run from 9 to 10:30 a.m.
Founded in 1990 by Zen monk Hwalson Sunim, Detroit Zen Center is a branch of Sudeok-sa, a major Korean temple founded circa 600 CE. It offers public Zen study and practice in Hamtramck, with guided Zen sessions on Sundays from 9 to 10:30 a.m.; a $20 donation and RSVP are requested. Visitors can also attend public talks, tours, and beginners retreats. Monks and students live on-site and practice daily meditation while supporting urban ecological stewardship through organic, locally sourced meals, green roofs, native gardens, reclamation, composting, recycling, and hands-on projects. Short- and long-term guest residency is available by application through its Zen and Urban Ecology Stay program, with individualized participation. The center also offers Living Zen Organics and the Blue Collar Zen Podcast.
