Meditation For Peace

Can we create true inner peace with the practice of meditation?

Can we make peace in the world with the practice of meditation?

If practiced well, often, and long enough, meditation leads to profound calmness and relaxation, that affects all.

La méditation aide à trouver un calme intérieur qui se reflète dans nos actions. Quand plusieurs personnes pratiquent cette paix-là, elles influencent aussi leur entourage et contribuent un peu à plus de paix dans le monde.

A calm peaceful person acts in a more mindful intentional way, contributing to peace and harmony of entire society.

Even more, there have been many experiments when groups of people meditating tried to reduce the amount of violence in a certain place or even stop a war.
The results were interesting... the science has a lot to catch up, to understand how the mind acts over matter.

On the day of spring equinox, we will meet to practice meditation for peace in inspiring settings of Mont Royal mountain.
Dress accordingly so you can sit at least for 10-15 minutes without a need to move and warm up. We will commence with a mindfulness walk and do some sacred Yoga type of exercises to prepare.

All levels are welcome, the length of your meditation will depend on what we will decide as a group, and what you will choose for yourself.

MEETING PLACE: Mount Royal park, the front entrance of Smith House, next to the water fountain and a big parking lot. This is an old house with a small museum, gifts shop and a cafe. If there is some construction work happening, just be in that area, find a wooden table with benches.

SMITH HOUSE: 1260 Remembrance Rd, Montreal, QC H3H 1A2
(this is NOT the house next to the Beavers lake, and this is NOT the house next to the lookout point over the downtown area).

WHAT TO BRING: a yoga mat, a cushion, whatever else you might need. Invite your spiritually hearted friends!

WHO CAN ATTEND:
Everybody in a relatively good physical shape, capable to sit for at least 10-15 minutes and do simple physical movements.

LANGUAGE: English, traduction française, si nécessaire. Nous aurons très peu de théorie, mais beaucoup de pratique!
