Meditation Instruction at Karma Thegsum Chöling Jacksonville

Meditation is the fundamental practice of all Buddhist traditions. We meet for Shamata meditation practice every Tuesday & Wednesday evening at 7:00 pm. This is a period of silent sitting and walking meditation that lasts for about one hour. If you are interested in Tibetan Buddhist meditation, you are most welcome to attend.

Instruction in Shamata, also called Shinay (calm abiding) meditation is available through the center at no charge. Instructors at Karma Thegsum Chöling Jacksonville have received approval to teach the Buddhist method of meditation from the Abbot of Karma Triyana Dharmachakra Monastery. Donations are welcome & accepted. See Our Newsletter for more information about upcoming classes.
