(In Person) Sitting and Sangha

Sitting and Sangha is a weekly meeting for group practice and discussion of dharma topics. Meetings are facilitated by senior dharma practitioners and community leaders. The group is inspired by the framework of a Kalyana Mitta (spiritual friendship) group, and the intention is to create a supportive and friendly environment for sharing and spiritual connection. The emphasis on the third jewel (Sangha) as a vehicle for practice provides the opportunity for sharing wisdom and building community. Meetings are held on a drop-in basis and no meditation experience is necessary.
