What we’re about
Welcome! Started in 2007, we are a simply a group of people who enjoy the experience of meditating together in a group. Since then, this meetup has never missed a Friday evening. Today, it is the largest meditation meetup in the SF Bay Area. While we offer many meetups, our flagship ones are Friday evenings at 6:30pm. The meetings are suitable for both beginners and seasoned meditators. The hour of meditation includes a combination of meditation commentary, music and silence. After the meditation we read a profound passage by an accomplished spiritual teacher, followed by a discussion. You are guaranteed to leave in a state of deep joy. All meetups are FREE of charge. Donations can be made voluntarily.
