Albuquerque Zen Center is a Buddhist practice community founded in 1989 under the leadership of Abbot Seiju Bob Mammoser. Devoted to traditional Zen meditation, the center offers beginner instruction, koan training, monthly day-long retreats, working meditation, and regular sangha gatherings. Its approach combines disciplined formal practice with a welcoming, lay-centered community that supports both new and experienced practitioners. Community outreach and a Japanese dry rock garden further reflect its emphasis on contemplation, shared effort, and service.
