Rinzai Zen Sesshin
OK, so the blogs on here suck.
In effort to make them interesting I'm going to post a very personal experience with a visit to a Zen Monastery.

My priest went to a Zen retreat in NY last year, I am wondering if it was the same place. He had to do the same thing- not speak, and meditate/pray for something like 16hrs! There was also some chores like helping prepare meals, etc.

You got it!
This is the only one in the US presided by a Japanese Roshi and built to Japanese Zen temple specs. I highly recomend a visit. Perhaps even more if you are of a different religion
