Open Community Meditation! (In Person)

All are welcome to join us for an in-person open community meditation every third Saturday morning at the Portland Dhamma Center. The morning includes sitting practice and walking meditation in a group setting. People with all levels of meditation experience are welcome!

The program is free (though donations are gratefully accepted) and well attended by a core group of people who don't RSVP on Meetup. Newcomers, please join us! 🌼

The lower door will open at 8:30 AM and meditation will start promptly at 9:00 AM. While we ask you to arrive ready to start meditation at 9:00 AM, attendees are free to leave at any time. The formal session ends at 11:30 AM, allowing for clean up, chatting and departure by 12:00 PM.

Meditation instruction is not included. Those wishing to receive meditation instruction are invited to attend the Learn Basic Meditation Technique workshop downstairs, which is held concurrently from 9:15 AM - 11:15 AM. In order to not interrupt the downstairs program, please use the upstairs restroom and exit through the upstairs doors if you intend to leave early.
