Join the Deer Park Monastics to walk "In the Footsteps of Thay" 11am - 1 pm from the entrance of Columbia University to W. 109th St. (Thich Nhat Hanh Way) on Saturday April 25 in New York City. 

Thich Nhat Hanh lived at 306 West 109th Street from 1962 to 1963 while studying and teaching at Union Theological Seminary (UTS) and Columbia University. This period marked a formative chapter in his life as a young scholar, teacher, and activist. 

On April 11, 2025, New York City officially inaugurated “Thích Nhất Hạnh Way” at the intersection of Broadway and West 109th Street, honoring the globally revered Zen master Thích Nhất Hạnh. Together, we will go as a river to walk in the footsteps of Thay.

Join us to find out why this specific walk was life-saving for our teacher, and described by Thay Phap Luu as "one of the most significant walking meditation in Thay's life."
