What we’re about

The Philadelphia Meditation Center (PMC) provides a place for Buddhist education, meditation and dharma-related activities. Our current schedule is available at: https://www.philadelphiameditation.org/PMC_Schedule.html

A large percentage of programs come from the mindfulness (or Insight, or vipassana) traditions as well as from Dzogchen teachings and other meditation-related areas. Zen students should feel comfortable with the regular silent meditation and retreat format. The emphasis is on teachings emphasizing direct experience and personal practice in a non-hierarchical, egalitarian and non-sectarian setting. We offer regular meditation sittings (in-person and via videoconference), education, and weekend retreats. PMC is located in Havertown, PA. It consists of a large, comfortable first floor meditation hall , and a second floor apartment containing a library, kitchen, sitting room and two bedrooms. There is a nearby public parking lot and the location is easily accessible from many areas in the Delaware Valley. The neighborhood is very friendly and pleasant and there are lovely spots nearby for walking meditation.

PMC is registered in Pennsylvania as a non-profit corporation.
