Become Involved Pine Wind was founded in 2000 by Seijaku Roshi, founder of The Zen Society (501C3 organization NJ 1985) and resident Spiritual Teacher, as a year-round Zen Center, and private residence. Our name, Pine Wind was chosen during the first night residency when the Monks were impressed by the sound of the wind as it traveled through the pine trees. The formal name of the temple is Jizo-an. "Jizo" refers to the Bodhisattva of children and women, and points to the early years of Seijaku Roshi's work and dedication to children and single parents. "An" is a Japanese term for "small". We welcome persons from all faiths, spiritual traditions, and walks of life who would like to experience the life changing practice of Zen-Meditation and the friendship of a truly grounded Spiritual Community.
