Intro to Meditation 4-Week Series: Sustainable Practice
Monday Evenings – April 6, 13, 20, and 27. 5:00-5:40pm

Have you ever tried to meditate and thought to yourself “This isn’t working.. Am I doing this right?.. I wish I could feel more peace!” Trying to quiet the mind without the tools to do it is like trying to fix your car without the necessary knowledge – you may figure it out eventually but it will take a whole lot longer! Learn meditation techniques that will help you find center in your life’s arena, stay grounded, and allow you to feel where your happiness really comes from – within!

Led by Kailasi Fontaine (pictured).
Kailasi has been a devoted student of Babaji Shambhavananda and a practitioner of meditation since 1976. In the early 1980s, she developed the first yoga teacher training program, along with a corresponding manual. She has a special passion for introducing meditation to beginners, drawing on decades of experience to share both the practices themselves and how they can be meaningfully integrated into everyday life.

What does meditation really mean? What's it like? It can't be understood by reading a book - we believe it has to be experienced by you, for yourself.

A truly sustainable meditation practice should be one that supports you in all aspects of your life. In these classes, you'll learn techniques to find peace, stay grounded, and fully enjoy each moment whether you're on your meditation cushion or doing your day-to-day.

Our workshop yesterday was a huge success!

Understanding the Mind and Going Beyond, an In-Depth Look at Kashmir Shaivism

Teaching, Learning, Discussion, Sharing, Deep Insights and lots of discussion about and practicing meditation.

We used a special Dharana practice gazing at a glass pitcher on the floor in the center of us.

LOOK UPON SOME OBJECT,
THEN SLOWLY WITHDRAW YOUR SIGHT FROM IT,
THEN SLOWLY WITHDRAW YOUR THOUGHT FROM IT.
THEN.
(Dharana 95 taken from Zen Flesh, Zen Bones by Paul Reps)

In-Depth Kashmir Shaivism Workshop: Understanding The Mind and Going Beyond

What is the nature of the mind? Does it lead us or do we lead it?

Whether you consider yourself a meditation practitioner or simply someone who wants to understand their own mind and their own self, pondering these questions is how we often start. Moving closer to the realization and experience that we are not our minds, understanding what it is helps us greatly along the spiritual path.
