Meditation Group
During the pandemic, our meditation group practiced the contemplations of the the Sutra on the Full Awareness of Breathing.
The group has not been meeting since the fall of 2021, but we are planning to reboot this weekly practice in January.
The recordings below are from PBO RD's meditation meetings in 2020 and 2021. Most contain a short dharma talk and a guided meditation. Together, they form a comprehensive set of instruction and practice in this form of Full Awareness of Breathing.
