 We invite everyone interested in learning about and practicing Tibetan Buddhism to join our public meditation every Tuesday at 7:30pm.

The evening start with a practitioner who gives a short 10-minute talk on Buddhism. Its a relaxed, friendly atmosphere, and there is always the opportunity to ask questions to clarify what was talked about.

After the talk, we will meditate together for about 20 minutes. We do the same guided meditation on the 16th Karmapa that is done in Diamond Way centers worldwide. This profound meditation is easy to learn and practice, and has a cumulative effect on the mind, leading to greater clarity, calmness and joyfulness. The meditation is guided, so you just need to follow along.

No prior knowledge of Buddhism or meditation experience is necessary. Everyone is welcome. 

We have meditation cushions available. Feel free to bring your own cushion if you have one.

Public meditations are free. Donations will help to preserve Diamond Way teachings & meditations and keep them accessible to the public.

Suggested Donation $10 (children free)
