What we’re about
Meet like-minded people interested in meditation near you! Learn how to meditate or deepen your current meditation practice. A trademark of the meditations we emphasize is the ease in which they can be used both “on the cushion” and in our daily lives.
Each meeting will include practical meditation, and a talk on how to reduce stress and other problems encountered in daily life and how to increase mental and physical well-being. There will also be plenty of time to discuss the ideas presented. Although the meditations and talks are based on Kadampa Buddhist philosophy, you don't need to be a Buddhist to enjoy this group or benefit from our meditations.
Kadampa Buddhism stresses a spiritual path of individual transformation and to look within ourselves for the inner peace and happiness we seek. Everyone is welcome!

The Power of Empathy
Tennessee Valley Unitarian Universalist Church, 2931 Kingston Pike, Knoxville, TN, USThe Power of Empathy with Modern Buddhism Teacher Jill Cagney
Empathy is the ability to share another person's thoughts and feelings, and see things from their point of view. When we lack empathy, we only see things from our own point of view, and this leads to disharmony and division. We need to cultivate empathy so that we can relate to others from the heart and erode feelings of disconnection and 'otherness'
Through training in a special meditation practice called 'exchanging self with other's, we can begin to develop a profound type of empathy and, from that ground, grow the altruistic minds of universal love and compassion.
