Jakkoan Zendo is always open,
for individual silent meditation


Jakkoan Zendo was named by Hojosama Keibun Otogawa,
and dedicated by Shoho Michael Newhall, Resident Teacher at Jikoji.

Keibun translated his Calligraphy as:
"jaku" calm, quiet, deep silence
"ko" - light
"an" - small zendo, hermitage

"Radiant Hut" is another translation

The wood and glass structure of about 24 by 16 feet
was built with recycled materials
that blend within its secluded meadow
surrounded by redwood, oak, and bay trees.
