OUR PRACTICE
In the record of a Master it says: "on your lump of red flesh is a true man without rank who is always going in and out of the face of every one of you. Those who have not yet proved him, look, look!" The basis of Eremita Zen Hermitage is the selfrealization of this "true man without rank."
The Insopor Zen Academy is a nonprofit association.
Our purpose is to awaken each and everyone's true nature and to share compassion with the community.

HEADMONK
Zen Monk Marcel Reding
In the year 2015 zen monk Marcel Reding opened the gates to the public. After ten years of continuous reexamination of the words and actions of the wise and holy Ones in japanese and south-korean zen monasteries, Zen Monk Marcel Reding founded, in mutual reliance with the clergy and laity, the Insopor Zen Academy in Switzerland in 2014.
He absolved a pilgrimage through Japan (3000 miles) doing traditional almsround as a way of thanks for the ten-year training as a zen monk.
As founder and head monk he is in charge of the Honora Zen monastery in Reichenburg and the Eremita Zen temple in Einsiedeln.
