Group Meditation Opportunities
Group meditation is a wonderful way to support one another in our spiritual practices and boost the benefits of meditation. Since Covid, we have had to decrease our group meditations, but there are ways to meditate with others.
- Sunday Service is a group experience. Meditation periods during service are very brief, but the benefit of being with other spiritual seekers and sharing ritual, worship, affirmation, music, as well as meditation, cannot be overstated. When we join our energy with others in high aspiration, we grow.
- Monthly group meditations will be held in person in the temple, beginning in January, 2023. Group meditations for Kriyabans will also be offered. Please call for information: 503-626-3403.
- Kirtans, which include devotional chanting and brief meditation, are usually scheduled monthly. Please call for information: 503-626-3403
