206 - Dirt Zendo, Cloud Zendo, One Sangha: Buddhist Community in the Digital Age – Part 1
Since COVID lockdown, Buddhist communities have greatly expanded their online practice opportunities. Virtual spaces are surprisingly effective for practice and building a sense of Sangha. Many Buddhist and Zen centers are now facing the prospect of permanently including options for virtual participation, which brings many opportunities but also many challenges. I discuss how the virtual and physical practice spaces look at my Zen center, and how we structure hybrid meetings. Then I talk about the merits of what we call the "Cloud Zendo." In my next episode, I'll discuss the merits of a good old-fashioned physical practice space, which we call the "Dirt Zendo," and the ways my Zen center is trying to integrate and care for both of our Zendos and create a sense of being one Sangha.
