Members of our Dharma community have the opportunity to meet regularly for Morning Service, meditation, qigong, discussion and, of course, share a meal. We also meet regularly by Zoom to discuss whatever is “up” for individuals.
Our emphasis is on cultivating meditative awareness, clear intention (not clouded by shadow), wisdom and compassion. Our tools include disciplined concentration meditation, the Mondo Koan Dialectic, shadow work, Integral understanding and the study of lineage teachings.
