Welcome to O-An Zendo, a meditation center in central Pennsylvania devoted to the practice and teaching of Zen Buddhism. The Japanese phrase "O-An" means "hut of harmony," which reflects the natural beauty, simplicity, and peaceful atmosphere of the zendo, as well as the commitment of our spiritual community to building personal, inter-personal and ecological relationships.

O-An does not have an "official" ideology but blends a variety of practice styles and traditions (none involving the kyosaku). We offer daily and Sunday meditation sessions, special Buddhist celebrations, Zen studies, yoga classes, workshops, kirtan (devotional Hindu) chanting, and occasional activities for children.
