Yokoji-Zen Mountain Center is a Zen Buddhist Training and Retreat Center located in the beautiful wilderness of the San Jacinto Mountains of Southern California.
Founded in 1981 by Taizan Maezumi Roshi as a summer retreat center for the Zen Center of Los Angeles, it is now a year-round Zen Center for residents and non-residents under the direction of the abbot, Tenshin Fletcher Roshi.
Yokoji-Zen Mountain Center is open to people in all spiritual traditions and walks of life who would like to experience the life changing practice of meditation. We offer a regular daily schedule, introductory weekends, silent meditation retreats (sesshin) ranging from 2 to 7 days, and two intensive training periods a year. Yokoji has grown up over the years, from a small collection of temporary buildings with a tent for a Zendo, into the fully fledged international Training Center of today – and a continuous cycle of year-round training has been maintained since 1995.
We offer year round training in Zen Buddhism, both residential and non-residential, attracting people from all over the States and the rest of the world. You can practice with us here for any period, from one day to one year, for a single retreat or longer.
