The Sangha meets weekly on Tuesday evenings, 7:00 to 8:30 p.m. at Live Oak in the Fellowship Hall.
Everyone is welcome!
Beginners, long time practitioners, and people who have never meditated but think they might like to explore a Buddhist practice in the context of Unitarian Universalism are invited to join us. We start with a 20-minute silent sitting meditation and 10 minutes of walking meditation, followed by 30 minutes of discussion. We close with another short silent sitting meditation.
May Sangha meetingsIn May, on the 1st and 3rd Tuesdays we will continue the book Thich Nhat Hanh: Essential Writings. On the 2nd and 4th Tuesdays of May we will do something different which might include listening to a recorded teaching by a Buddhist teacher, chanting, or extended silent meditation time.
