VIPASSANA MEDITATION
WEEKLY SITTING
At the Unitarian Universalist Church Fort
Collins
In the Worship Room of the Religious Education
Building
TUESDAYS 7:00 ~ 7:45 PM
Vipassana Meditation (known also as insight or mindfulness
in the Buddhist tradition) is a simple technique which has
been practiced in Asia for over 2,500 years. Beginning with
the focusing of attention on the breath, the practice concentrates
and calms the mind. It allows one to see through the mind's
conditioning and thereby to live more fully present in the
moment. This class presentation through the UU Church
is non-sectarian, although the ethics and traditions of Buddhist
psychology are included for guidance.
We meet every Tuesday (except for the times listed below*)
in the worship room at the UU Church, 1815 Yorktown Ave.
Fort Collins, CO. Instruction is offered on the first Tuesday
of the month (from 6:15 ~ 6:45) and talks are given periodically
~ announcement of talks will be posted at the sittings.
Sharon Kreider is our meditation leader. Sharon has
been practicing vipassana meditation since 1978 and has studied
world-wide with renowned teachers. She has also completed
the Community Dharma Leader program through Spirit Rock and
has been given the blessings to lead classes, sitting groups,
daylong retreats in vipassana meditation and serve communities
in the deepening of this practice.
