About the Event
Drawing from the 8th century classic, the Bhavanakrama, we will explore how meditation can be incorporated into our urban lifestyles to bring authentic presence and mindfulness to everyday life. We will receive meditation instruction and discuss the purpose of meditation in the context of current social realities, including such topics as shopping, nutrition, mass consumption, and the concept of "green meditation."
