Meditation with Steven Subodha Nuñez
Second and Third Sunday of the month: 10:00AM to 10:45AM
Open to everyone regardless of meditation experience. These sessions begin with refuge and precepts chanting followed by a guided metta (loving-kindness/goodwill) meditation. Guided instruction in breath meditation is given with a different theme or aspect of the meditation being focused on each session. This is followed by silent meditation, ending with a dedication of merit. The remaining time is for discussion. Cushions and chairs are provided and everyone is encouraged to sit in whatever way they feel most comfortable.
