Learn to Meditate

Learn to Meditate

DAVIS SHAMBHALA MEDITATION CENTER.  Join us for 4 Saturday mornings in April to learn a simple yet profound meditation practice that is grounded in the ancient Tibetan teachings of Shambhala.  Centered on the notion of basic goodness these teachings & practices are meant for times of joy & also times that are unsettling and difficult.  They describe how people can actually make use of tenderness, sadness & fear to access an open awareness that is clear seeing, steady & kind.  Each Saturday morning session (9-Noon) will include talks, guided meditation instruction, small discussion groups & a tea break.   All levels of practice welcome.  In-person only.  If you have attended before consider joining us again with special "repeaters pricing" - each time we mediate together in community, we step in with "beginningers mind." 9a - 12p.
