Yoga & Meditation Classes

Monday-Saturday

Guru Gita Chant and Morning Meditation 5:30 – 7 am

In-person

The Guru Gita is a mantra. Mantras are sacred Sanskrit words, phrases, or long chants that are specifically designed to both clean and clear the mind and bring you to a state of meditation. We use this long chant to let go of our thoughts and prepare in a more meaningful way for our day ahead. WIf you’re not familiar with Sanskrit or even meditation, don’t let that stop you from trying it! After the Guru Gita we sit for about 30 minutes in silence together to absorb the positive energy of the chant. There is always a chance to ask questions and chat with Ashram residents afterwards. 

Please no shorts, sweat pants, jeans, or sweat suits. The color orange is traditionally reserved for teachers to wear only. Learn more about our temple etiquette.

Sunday

Medicine Buddha Meditation

6:30 – 7:30 am 

In-person

Every Sunday morning we get to do the Medicine Buddha practice together. First we cultivate the qualities of bodhichitta (in Buddhism, the qualities of boundless love, compassion, joy, and equanimity), then chant (in the Tibetan language) the Medicine Buddha Practice we’ve been given by H.H. Drikung Kyabgön Chetsang Rinpoche. If you’re not familiar with tibetan mantras, don’t worry! We provide instruction, the transliteration (Tibetan practice  written in English letters) is simple to follow, and the language itself is very relaxing and rejuvenating.

We welcome you to this very special practice!
