About us
This Meetup is for anyone looking to reduce stress, become more positive, and learn how to bring peace into daily life. The meetings are perfect for anyone new to meditation and Buddhism as well as those with some experience already. Join us for an introduction to meditation, mindfulness, and Buddhist teachings for modern daily life. Everyone is welcome!
Our main meeting location is in Downtown Dallas. We're a hidden gem in the city, just opposite the Dallas World Aquarium. It's like an urban oasis.

There is no need to register on MeetupDigital distraction is a real thing for most of us. There seems to be a certain pleasantness that draws us into the digital world, like the light that draws in a moth. But over time we find neither contentment nor lasting happiness within our digital activities. Nevertheless, we are gently tugged toward this familiar space — a place to go when some free time appears — and these moments add up.
In this series of meditation classes, we will dive into ways to enjoy time beyond the digital landscape. We will look at how we can change our habits, and how to maintain the strength of mind to be present with others. As winter approaches and we start to have more time indoors with loved ones, these techniques will be invaluable for everyone's happiness and well-being.
Everyone is welcome!

Creating Islands of Peace
KADAMPA MEDITATION CENTER TEXAS, 1875 Laws St., Dallas, TX, USSundays 11am – 12:15pm
Please register online at www.meditationintexas.org OR at the door.
There is no need to register on MeetupLife presents to us a range of experiences, but in reality, these experiences are colored by our state of mind. If we develop positive states of mind, we have better experiences. Eventually, we will always have a happy mind and a level of wisdom that experiences everything as joyful. Such a practitioner literally goes from joy, to joy, to joy.
If we can learn to be inwardly joyful and peaceful regardless of what is going on around us, we create an island of peace - where our spiritual practice transforms our own experience and that of those around us for the better. Over time, we will learn to abide within our peaceful mind all the time.
So, let's start building our peace of mind and travel from joy to joy! Everyone is welcome.
