Thursday Evening Meditation Classes

Thursday evening meditation class takes place every week and is taught by Senior students, Sam, Richard and Linda Mae. All are long time students and practitioners of Geshe Kelsang Gyatso's Study Programs, both Foundation Program (FP) and Teacher Training Program (TTP) here at Kadampa Meditation Center Washington. Although the class topics on Thursday night generally follow a series format, each is self-contained and you can benefit from attending any class.

Feel free to drop in to any class that fits your schedule. While meditation is something we can do on our own, it is wonderful to receive teachings and guidance from a supportive community! Classes include guided relaxation meditation, instruction on how to keep a peaceful mind, and time for Q&A.

Time: 7:00 PM - 8:15 PM

Taught by our Teacher Training Program students

Sam Forbes, Richard Critchlow, Linda Mae Stangeland
