Stillpoint · Chan brings 1,500 years of Chinese Buddhist practice — sitting meditation, the breath of ānāpānasati, the Heart Sūtra, and the quiet recitation of the Buddha-name — into ten minutes of your day. 观自在菩萨，行深般若波罗蜜多时，照见五蕴皆空。
"Form is emptiness, emptiness is form." 色不异空，空不异色；色即是空，空即是色。 Heart Sūtra · The Prajñāpāramitā
Not a religion to join — a practice to return to. Each pillar draws from the long Chinese Buddhist tradition, distilled into sessions you can fit between meetings.
Seated meditation in the Chan tradition. Half-lotus, eyes soft, mind a clear pool. 5–30 minutes.
Ānāpānasati — counting one to ten on the exhale, returning when the mind wanders. The oldest method.
The Heart Sūtra, Diamond Sūtra, Universal Gate — voiced in Chinese and unpacked in English.
Pure-Land recitation of Namo Amitābha. One mind, one breath, one Name — the simplest gate.

Stillpoint · Chan will partner with practitioners from the Chinese Buddhist tradition — Chan monastics, sūtra translators, and lay teachers who have lived in the practice for decades. Names below are reserved seats — real voices, not yet announced.
Stillpoint launches in early 2027. Join the waitlist for early access, free founding-member rates, and a weekly letter on the practice — both paths, Tao and Chan.
