About Endless Mountain Zendo
Updated: May 3, 2026
Endless Mountain Zendo is a Zen Buddhist country practice center dedicated to the realization of Buddha Nature. The style of practice is based in the Rinzai Zen Buddhist tradition. EMZ is located in the midst of 18 woodland acres in the rolling hills of northeastern Pennsylvania. This natural sanctuary, abounding with wildlife, offers a serene and peaceful atmosphere for Zen practice. The Zendo makes available the teachings and practice of Zen Buddhism to all sincerely seeking it. Zazen (Zen meditation) and present-minded action lie at the heart of daily life and practice at EMZ. While maintaining an ongoing daily practice by a small ordained residency, the Zendo offers a program of events to the larger community for both beginning and experienced students. Endless Mountain Zendo was opened in September of 1998 and grew from the former Zen Center of Philadelphia (Plum Tree Zendo) and from Zendo in New Hope. The abbot is Rev. Genro Lee Milton, Sensei.
