From traditional knowledge in Zen Buddhism to modern lingo in the start-up world, from Japanese to English to Chinese, this meditation group has evolved into a linguistic journey for those who wishes to not just meditate, but to immerse oneself into this vibrant cultural interaction through the intricate translations between ideas and words, languages, as well as cultures.
This may just be perfect for those who are not just interested in Zen, but also in the intersection of languages and cultures.
We are not teachers. We are practitioners, entrepreneurs, experimenters. We hope that our combined experience in Zen ✕ Entrepreneurship and our common pursuit for a borderless world, from the inside-out, could help not just calm our minds, but inspire us to apply the wisdom of zen into our personal and professional lives.
After many discussions, design and development, we are going to conduct our courses in 4 steps.

Starting with UNXE 2.0, we will be conducting our meditation sessions as follow:
45 minutes / session - The community dialogues and guided meditations are both very meaningful parts of our practice. The Sessions will be conducted in both English and Japanese
1 session / week - So we have time to dwell into a topic, as well as for us to produce valuable contents sustainably, we have decided to run our sessions once a week, every Saturday so people with work schedule that makes it difficult to join during the week would also be able to attend.
4 sessions / course - Each course will be devoted to going deep on one topic that relates to our everyday lives. The topic of the next course will be voted by our community.

We genuinely want to let as many people as possible be able to experience this series, thus we have decided that there would be no fixed fees associated with joining. We do ask for a pay-as-you-wish gesture to support our operating costs if the series is of value to your life.
If you are interested in having a private / team session, please feel free to contact us with your information, expected duration, and group size. Thank you.
