Our meditation group is established to support your practice at any level, so you can gain the benefits from your practice in the health, well-being, peacefulness, and spiritual enlightenment. Our meeting location is at Wat Pa of Arizona (www.wataz.org) located at 14911 E Chandler Heights Road, Chandler, AZ 85249. It is a Theravada Buddhist temple in the linage of Thai Forest tradition.
