The Zen Center of Syracuse Hoen-ji is dedicated to the remarkably subtle, profound, yet simple practice of meditation, through which we cultivate wisdom and compassion. In continuous operation since 1972, it is one of the oldest Zen Buddhist centers in the United States.

This is everywhere, without differentiation or degree.

Note that we have recently added the ability to make on-line payments for some courses, programs and donations.
