We’re here on a very clear mission. To pass along to you the deep and profound truths of Zen Buddhism that were passed down to us. Zen is one of the most ancient and widely respected wisdom traditions. Why? Because for over 2500 years the Buddha’s insights and views have stayed as relevant to the day-to-day lives of regular people as food, sleep, hope and love. And taking a few minutes to meditate each day adds to your life in so many ways. We all want to more deeply understand and appreciate our lives, our world, our relationships. All it takes is focusing a little energy that way, and finding people to learn from and discuss things with. Go ahead and ask the big questions, or the small ones… Genpo Roshi and the other Zen teachers here will show you how to find the answers. The four teachers at here have a combined experience of over 100 years of Zen training. Zen is alive and well in Salt Lake City and it’s not expensive or time consuming. Our typical year round weekly schedule is below. We know you are busy so we offer a lot of classes and meditation times so that you can pick the ones that suit your schedule. Dress is casual. Our beautiful meditation room has both cushions and chairs available to sit on. Below is the typical weekly schedule. Sunday Morning 10 am to 11:30 am Western Zen Class with Q & A (library and office open until 1 pm.) Donations gratefully accepted Monday through Friday Mornings Morning Silent Meditation 7:00 am – 8:00 am Two 30 minute meditation periods. You can do either one or both. Free! Monday Evening 7:30 -9:15 pm Silent Meditation 3 periods. You can do any or all of them. Free! Tuesday Evening 8:00-9:30 pm Zen Class (Varies) Donations gratefully accepted Wednesday Evening 7:30-9:15 pm Silent Meditation 3 periods. You can do any or all of them. Free! Thursday Evening 8:00-9:30 pm Zen Class with Q & A Donations gratefully accepted Saturday 7:00 am to Midnight Open Silent Meditation Come and go as you please all day. Just be silent! Free!

The Murray Arboretum is a part of the Murray park (across from the new hospital on State Street). The entrance to the arboretum is on the east side of the park, across from the swimming pool. (Come if from Vine St. and you're right there.) A lot of old trees, pathways and water make this a perfect setting for outdoor sketching and drawing. In case it rains we will meet at Cactus & Tropicals on 20th East in Salt Lake. I contacted them and they will be happy to have us come there to draw. (Check out their website to see what a beautiful place it is. And I'm sure you may even find a plant to buy and take home (though purchases are not necessary)). See you there!

Description:
This slogan represented a central issue of debate within CIAM (Congress Internationale d'Architecture Moderne) and the forefront of architecture culture prior to WWII, pitting extreme functionalist architects such as the Marxist Hannes Meyer against "aesthetically" interested architects such as Le Corbusier. This debate of pure functionalism, accompanied by its assumption of pure social responsibility, versus suspect interests of architects who included questions of beauty, form and meaning within their architectural concerns--alongside functionalism and social responsibility -has remained in varying forms a critical issue in architecture to our current time. In fact, this has always been a far more complex question than slogans and most polemical positions ever admit. In the past thirty years architecture has again swung dramatically between varying claims on this question.
