About us
Join our group for meditation classes and discussion of ancient Indian scriptures. Each class consists of a 20 minute meditation followed by a one hour exploration of a spiritual text. Most classes have around 10 students and they take place in my home in Oakland. There is no charge for the courses (we operate on a voluntary dana/donation basis).
The following classes are currently ongoing:
Tripura Rahasya meeting Saturday mornings at 10:00 AM
Bhavawad Gita meeting Sunday evenings at 6:30 PM
Vivekachoodamani meeting Monday at 7:30 AM
Introductory course the Art of Meditation beginning January 18, Thursdays at 7:30 PM.

Perhaps the greatest spiritual book ever written, the Gita explores exhaustively the Path and the Goal of the spiritual life. We will begin with the first chapter and make our way through the entire text. Students may “drop in” at any time as Gita is circular in its style and one can enter at any point.
