Soto Zen in Spain

Camino Medio

Practice, study, and community

Teachings, zazen practice, and community life in the Soto Zen tradition.

Camino Medio is a Soto Zen Buddhist community rooted in Spain and open to people who wish to practice, study, and live the Dharma in everyday life. We bring together local dojos, online practice, retreats, and study resources within the lineage of Dogen Zenji and Keizan Jokin.

  • Daily zazen practice online and regular in-person practice in local dojos.
  • Dharma articles, orientation pages, and study resources available in English.
  • Retreats, ceremonies, and community activities throughout the year.
