SUMMARY:Community Meditation
DESCRIPTION:Each Thursday from 6:30pm-8:30pm \nCommunity Meditation is a new offering from Diamond Light Meditation Center beginning June 1st and will be ongoing Thursday nights! All levels are welcome! Learn to meditate and develop a meditation practice in a supportive community. \nMeditation helps us to calm the mind\, develop concentration\, and reduce stress. We will explore various types of meditation in the Tibetan Buddhist tradition\, such as analytical and placement meditation. Analytical meditation deepens our understanding of the Dharma through exploring subjects on the lam rim (stages of the path). Placement\, or concentration (“calm abiding”)\, allows the practitioner to stay on their “object”\, and to deepen realizations.\nThose new to meditation will learn enjoy learning how to start a practice\, and experienced practitioners will enjoy the support of sitting with a group. \nJoin members of our community for meditation practice and discussion. If you are new to meditation\, come learn how to start your practice\, meet experienced practitioners\, and enjoy the community of group meditation. Experienced meditators will appreciate the support of sitting with a group. \nThursdays 6:30pm-8:00pm\nat Diamond Light Meditation Center\n2791 24th Street\, Room 14 (upstairs)\nSacramento\, CA 95818\nparking lot in back\, ADA accessible \ncost: Donation Based \nhttps://www.diamondlightsac.org
