Full Moon Meditation
Package Dates
A DHARMAKAYA CENTER PROGRAM
As the moon waxes, people become more susceptible to their emotions. Its apex, when the moon shines full above us, presents a particularly profound time for practice. Instead of falling prey to turmoil and negative emotions, we become more aware of the workings of our minds—and in the process, accumulate additional merit. We invite you to join us.
The program is free and open to all, but reservations are required for each session.
ABOUT THE PROGRAM
Each month, on the night of the full moon, we hold special full-moon meditation sessions. We sit together at 7 in the evening, often followed by tea in front of the fire, and occasionally a sound bath. Meditators are welcome to spend the night on personal retreat, joining us for dinner on the Full Moon, our morning salutations and meditation, breakfast, and enjoying the campus through lunch. This requires a separate reservation.
