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.
