Here’s How it Works
All day on Monday May 27, our peaceful meditations will honor those who have sacrificed and are sacrificing their lives for the greater good of humanity. You are invited to attend any of the 25-minute meditation sessions, as we collectively pass our peaceful energy on to others.
At 10 a.m. we will begin with a prayer ceremony. From 10:30 a.m. to 5 p.m., continuous 25-minute meditation sessions will start every 30 minutes. Come and go as you like (staying for the entire 25-minute session).
Transitions will be indicated by the ringing of a bell.
Five-minute transition times are for mindfully entering, exiting, and stretching. To respect the practice of others, please:
transition with minimal disturbance
stay for the entire 25-minute meditation session
drive in and out of the parking lot quietly
practice noble silence
Sitting periods may be alternated with walking meditations through the temple grounds. Although this program is not offered online, consider joining us wherever you are, using this meditation timetable.
