It’s week 19 / 2026

Reserve your place, this week, for an intimate gathering of meditation, matcha and exchange. In just six weeks, Zen monk Tosei Shinabe returns to Zurich to guide a series of Zazen sessions, this time in the quiet brightness of early summer. Held in groups of eight, sessions begin on 10 June and continue over the following days, with the final date already sold out. In our store, you will find meditation cushions created exclusively for AGOBAY by Niwa Futon, a 150-year-old family business in Nagoya. Developed in collaboration with Tosei, the zabuton and zafu are made especially for Zazen, shaped by the age-old tradition of futon making. We revisit our magazine story on fifth-generation custodian Takuya Niwa, who continues this lineage with joy and curiosity.
