Welcome!
CloudWater Zendo, the Zen Center of Cleveland, is a Zen center and Buddhist temple based in Cleveland, Ohio. We are dedicated to Ch'an meditation (also known as Zen), the 5 Elements School of Pure Land Buddhism (a contemporary rendering of traditional Pure Land Buddhism), the practice of traditional meditative arts and the study of Buddhist and Taoist teachings. We are also the home of the Nien-Fo Order of Ch'an Buddhist Monks.
CloudWater Zendo operates affiliated meditation groups in Canton, Ohio and Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. Our sister temple is the Dragon Flower Ch'an Temple of Tacoma, Washington. We are also associated with the Richard Hunn Association for Ch'an Study in England.
