Montaña despierta

Montaña Despierta

We are a group of spiritual friends embarked on a search of what it means to be human. Our path includes meeting every week to sit in meditation following mainly the tradition of Zen Buddhism. Our practice flows from the understanding that all beings are Buddha and that sitting in meditation is itself the realization of awakening. The impetus of our practice is summed up in the motto: "Realize yourself, help others."

Texts and Audios

Montaña Despierta has been dedicated to the translation of a considerable amount of teachings into Spanish and to creating an audio library with the Dharma talks that are given in the retreats. This constitutes a great collection and a unique contribution to the world of Spanish-speaking Buddhism. We invite you to consult it at:

Activities

We follow a simple and basic form inspired by the Soto Zen tradition, established by Eihei Dogen in Japan in the thirteenth century and transmitted to us in the West by Shunryu Suzuki Roshi. We have a Zen meditation group that meets twice weekly and we organize three to four intensive meditation retreats a year with our guest teachers.

Teachers

The teachers we invite to Montaña Despierta, each with his or her own particular background and trajectory, follow a style of transmission that can be best described as “warm hand to warm hand and warm heart to warm heart”; that is, a style characterized by a spirit of cordiality, wisdom, inclusion and compassion. .
