Weekly Mindfulness/Shamatha Meditation
Sundays, 10:30AM–11:30 AM
We are offering the opportunity for both beginning and experienced meditators to practise in a group setting. We will stick closely to the schedule as outlined below and people are encouraged to come for as much of the session as they would like to be a part of. Instruction is available for anyone wishing to learn the basics of meditation.
- 10:30-10:40 Opening prayers and mantras
- 10:40-11:00 Sitting meditation
- 11:00-11:10 Walking meditation
- 11:10-11:30 Sitting meditation
- 11:30 Dedication and open time for discussion (sometimes at a local coffee shop)
If you are new to meditation, please try to come 5 or 10 minutes early and one of our more experienced members will be happy to provide an introduction. We also encourage you to read the introductory meditation instructions written for us by our teacher, Zasep Rinpoche. For more information, please use our contact page.
NOTE: The first session is on Sunday, November 22, 2009. We will break for the holiday season, so there will be no sessions on December 27th or January 3rd. We will reconvene on Sunday, January 10, 2010.
