Welcome!

One Heart Sangha is a community of individuals who come together for Zen practice in the downtown Silver Spring, Maryland area.

We invite you to our weekly Wednesday evening Zen practice at our zendo near Downtown Silver Spring. We also offer monthly ”Days of Zazen“ (zazenkai), retreats, practice intensives, and a range of other programs and events.

We welcome all who wish to practice Zen meditation. As a meditation community or sangha, we are friends on the path. People of different faiths (or of no faith) find Zen practice helps to deepen their own traditions, build connections, and to practice more contemplative ways of living.
