The Chogye International Zen Center of New York, part of the Kwan Um School of Zen, was founded in 1975 by Zen Master Seung Sahn, the first Korean Zen Master to teach in the West. The center fosters a supportive environment for meditation and communal practice, offering daily sessions, monthly talks, and various retreats to deepen participants' understanding of Zen.
With a focus on self-exploration through meditation and dialogue, the center encourages practitioners to engage with the central question of "What am I?" By providing both in-person and online opportunities for practice, Chogye International Zen Center aims to make Zen accessible to all, promoting clarity and energy in everyday life.
