Wednesday Meditation

We welcome experienced practitioners and beginners.

We are a local Buddhist meditation and study group that has been meeting regularly in Davis since 1994.

Generally, we follow a Theravadan practice but all are welcome and will find a comfortable environment for following their Buddhist practice.

Our group does not have a regular teacher; we learn & practice as a community.

If you have not meditated with us before, please come a few minutes early on Wednesday evening. If you would like meditation instruction, please let us know in advance.

Currently on hiatus.
