Detroit Zen Center was founded in 1990 by Zen monk Hwalson Sunim as a branch of Sudeok-sa -- a major temple in Korea founded circa 600 CE.  We provide a place for the study & practice of Zen -- a way of life that fosters awakening & ecological respect through study, practice and community.  Monks and students live on-site.  To explore, please attend a public meditation, talk, tour or beginners retreat.
