The RCMG (http://www.riversidechan.org) holds a weekly lecture/sitting meditation class at the Riverside Unity Church located at 3730 Elizabeth St., Riverside, CA 92506.

Our aspirations:
- To use every situation in daily life as an opportunity for spiritual practice
- To uplift the character of humanity
- To build a pure land on earth

Class consists of an hour-long Dharma lecture by Gilbert Gutierrez* in the Chan (Chinese Zen) tradition, a short break then approximately 30 minutes of sitting meditation.

Please note: Be prepared to remove shoes when entering the Sanctuary Room. Bring your own cushion/mat to sit on and a large towel or small blanket. Chairs will be available if you prefer not to sit on the floor. There is a recommended donation of $6 for continuing students.

If you have questions about the class, please email us at sentha@riversidechan.org

To get a flavor of the classes, checkout our weekly podcast (http://dharmatalks.riversidechan.org).

*Mr Gutierrez is one of five lay practitioners who have received Dharma transmission from Venerable Master Sheng Yen of Dharma Drum Mountain (http://www.dharmadrum.org).
