We have a small Sangha that meets every Sunday from 4:30 until 6.  The general orientation is around Vipassana meditation.  We sit to develop mindfulness -- a skilled understanding and orientation to the present moment.  Following the Vipassana tradition, meditations focus on the breath, the body, compassionate awareness, and gradually, on the nature and emptiness of mind.

We started this group because of a Margaret Mead quote we embraced: "Never doubt that a small group of thoughtful, committed citizens can change the world. Indeed, it is the only thing that ever has." We've seen the results of 1) creating your vision through meditation 2) set S.M.A.R.T. goals in that direction 3) use the buddy system & team support to achieve them. The meetings may include a book share that supports this vision.

What is Meditation? With so many common misconceptions about meditation, it might be better to clarify what meditation is NOT! Meditation is not relaxation. Relaxation is a natural process where the mind gets so tired of its own chatter that it just drops for a while. Though this may be a good way to get a glimpse of the no-mind state, it is not valuable in itself. We can come back from relaxation with exactly the same problems and prejudices we had before. Meditation, on the other hand, is a c …

This Meetup is planned to be a combination of exploration and discussions of consciousness along the lines of the ideas of Quantum Consciousness, as rather recent approach to explaining consciousness making use of quantum physics. Dr. Amit Goswami's approach parallels ancient wisdom teachings about spirituality and consciousness. Exploring this relationship and link should be exciting and intriguing, but mostly empowering of the individual's personal spiritual or consciousness quest. Science, my …

I would like to start a meditation group that meets somewhere near Baldwinsville or the west side of Syracuse. I practice mindfulness meditation from the Vipassana tradition, but am familiar with other forms. It would also be nice to be able to provide a place for discussion and sharing as well. I'm thinking that perhaps early Sunday afternoons would be a good time, but am open to considering other times and days. I have not found a place to do this yet, as I would like to see just how much inte …

This Music Meditation group will be offering calming, peaceful musical events. Music is one of the most accessible types of meditation available to us. Listening to tranquil, healing music can easily move us into a deeply relaxed meditative state. While in this state our heart rate slows, our breathing becomes slower and deeper and our brain waves also slow. This deep relaxation that we move into allows our minds to let go and our bodies to relax. We will be inviting different musicians to bring …
