Silence: Winter Sesshin

With John Tarrant & PZI Teachers
January 28th–February 1st, 2026
In the PZI Online Temple

Winter retreat is a chance to make tea in your own kitchen and turn your home into a temple. You might discover that your whole house is sacred. The house is happy to have you doing meditation and actually loves you.

Join us in the silence of retreat.

Silence has secret powers. To meet silence is to enter the deepest questions and the deepest kindness. It befriends our dreams. Just to step into the quiet of retreat is to find healing for troubles. We feel how much we are held by our friends who know about silence.

At winter retreat, even one sitting wipes away regrets and fears. When we awaken, the universe is our friend.

Join us online. Turn your home into a temple.

—John Tarrant

Dear PZI Friends,

We come together across oceans and continents with our members, teachers, musicians, and those new to PZI. We discover things together which we could not discover alone. There’s a scholarship fund for PZI members who want to attend and need financial aid. If you’re not a member, we invite you to join us today!

Thank you for all you’ve offered PZI over these many months and decades. It’s nice to have each other as we find our way.

—Board President Tess Beasley Roshi & Director John Tarrant Roshi & All of Us at PZI
