Meditation Class in Richmond

We offer a weekly meditation class for the Richmond community emphasizing techniques for training the mind to benefit both ourselves and those around us. Current Series- Dreamlike Reality: Exploring How Things Truly Exist Buddhism teaches that everything we experience appears to exist solidly and independently, outside of our mind. Because of this mistaken view, we project fixed ideas — good or bad, attractive or unattractive — onto people, things, and situations. This misunderstanding gives rise to our everyday stress, conflict, and emotional pain. Through meditating on emptiness, we begin to recognize the dreamlike nature of reality: things do not exist from their own side but depend entirely upon our mind. With this wisdom, our world becomes flexible and workable — and we gain the inner freedom to respond to life with peace, joy, and creativity. October 26: Public Talk with Kadam Michelle: Dream-like Reality November 2: Illusions, Rainbows & Mirages November 9: Who Do You Think You Are? Join us for class which consists of Guided Meditation, Buddhist Teachings and Commentary, and time for Questions and Discussion. Each session stands on its own, so you’re welcome to attend one class or the entire series. Suitable for beginners and experienced meditators alike, these classes offer practical tools you can apply immediately to create more happiness—starting from within. Everyone is welcome! Our tradition of Buddhism makes no distinctions on the basis of gender, sexuality, race, background, or income. And it doesn't matter if you identify with a different religion. Buddhist teachings can benefit everyone!
