Ended October 28

Shambhala Meditation Center of White River

158 S Main St

White River Junction, VT 05001

October 28

3:00 PM — 4:00 PM

Price: All donations appreciated.

An ongoing drop-in class Sundays 11 am except on the first Sunday of each month.

Beginning on Sunday, October 21st, Ken Ketchum will be offering a class at 11 am (following the 10 AM to 11 AM open sitting meditation practice.) All are welcome to join; a donation for each class you attend would be appreciated.

The Buddha’s teachings and the Shambhala teachings are like the two wings of a noble bird. The bird’s heart is caring for oneself, other beings and our shared world. You could say that the flight of the bird is our journey toward enlightenment.

In this series of gatherings we will explore together the foundational views and practices of the Buddhist ‘wing.’

After that the class meets from 11 am to 12 noon, after the 10 am meditation hour on Sunday mornings. All are welcome. Donations appreciated.
