Join us for group meditation instruction and practice at the Amador Senior Center in Jackson on Tuesday and Thursday mornings from 9:15 to 10:15.

We begin with Anapanasati or Full Awareness of Breathing meditation, a simple, natural method to settle and bring clarity to the mind. Once settled, we practice the Chan (Chinese Zen) practice of Silent Illumination, an effortless practice of abiding in the present in pristine awareness. We also explore other methods, such as Metta (Loving Kindness) meditation, slow walking meditation and Direct Contemplation, a form of meditation that can be practiced anywhere at any time, as well as methods for advanced practice.

This class is offered on a donation basis. No one is turned away for lack of funds. Donations help fund our website and group activities.

Chairs are available or bring your own cushion. Cushions can be ordered at Dharma Crafts. We use traditional brown color or choose your own.
