What we’re about
We meet regularly across Los Angeles including the foothills, the Valley, and WLA (UCLA). We have a big festival every year at the State Park in DTLA (meetup.com/zen-07.)
Our main practice sessions and Dharma talks are held weekly on Thursdays at 7:00 pm in Pasadena at the Ahiah Center for Spiritual Living, 150 N. El Molino Ave. near Colorado Blvd.
Explore Buddhist meditation and mindfulness practices, yoga, and other spiritual traditions. Learn, share, enjoy vegan snacks, and apply ancient methods to go with the flow of our modern American lives. We are all about group readings, inspirational talks, group sharing, mindful hugs, yoga poses and ecstatic breathing, discussions, and kind eating.
We cover three basic meditations during Thursday sessions: serenity for stages of absorption (samadhi), mindful movement for insight (vipassana), and boundless loving-kindness (metta) to break down the barriers. Free, supported completely by donations and volunteers. Get more involved.

See all- HELP WANTED to create healing mural after Altadena fire with Ekaterina SkyLink visible for attendees
Help wanted for Los Angeles Fire victims. Navigating through Altadena and seeing murals on some of the remaining walls is encouraging. From the ashes of our communities, people are offering art as visual support and healing.
Wisdom Quarterly invited artist Ekaterina Sky, who once had a studio in Los Angeles, to form an art collective to adorn a wall. We envision healing through art, coming together as a spiritual and secular community to set intentions for Los Angeles and Planet Earth to create this portable mural.
