Ten Ox Herding Pictures:
Stages in a Spiritual Journey

Created by the Chinese Master Guo-an Shi-yuan in the 12th century, the path of Zen is brought alive in the Ten Ox Herding pictures.
 
This famous series of images portrays a young ox herder whose journey leads them to discover, subdue and train a wild ox. Metaphorically, the ox symbolizes our Awakening and the herder is you, as you encounter the challenges of Zen practice.

Join us on a four-week journey and an optional half day retreat, as we study both the pictures and accompanying poems and use them as a guide to understand the general stages and spiraling progress of our practice. Classes will be recorded if you are unable to attend.
