Question 1

Do I have to come for the entire morning?

Accepted Answer

No.  Join for any activities according to your schedule. Please do not enter the dharma hall in the middle of a sitting meditation period to minimize distractions.

Question 2

Do I have to wear a gray robe to enter the dharma hall?

Accepted Answer

No. Guest robes are available to zen students joining our practice, but are not required.  As in most Asian spiritual traditions, the robes we wear are an expression of our intention. Your dharma teacher will explain how to tie your robe should you choose to wear one.
