Tuesday Sangha | Meditation: The Illusion of the Separate Self (in English)

Join us for our Tuesday Sangha—a welcoming space for meditating together and exploring the wisdom of the Buddhist path in the Insight (Vipassana) tradition.

Sessions typically include:
🧘 30-minute guided meditation
📖 A Dharma talk: a practical teaching to inspire joy, wisdom, and presence in daily life.
💬 Space for reflection & Q&A: fostering shared exploration and personal insights.

Talk of the day: The Illusion of the Separate Self.
In this session, we will explore how the mind constructs the sense of a separate “I” through thoughts, memories, and emotions, and how this illusion shapes our experience of suffering, identity, and limitation. Through reflection and guided inquiry, we’ll begin to question the story of the self and open into a deeper recognition of what you are beyond the mind.

This session is open to everyone, whether you're new to meditation or a longtime practitioner.
