Free Meditation Workshop
Saturday, May 7, 2016 10:00AM-1:00PM
These days we seem to be constantly on the go. With so much busyness, it can seem impossible to relax and enjoy the moments that make up our lives. Meditation is a simple yet profound method to improve our quality of life. Through following simple, practical steps we can let go of stress and agitation, learn to be in the moment and discover a refuge of peace and clarity within us.
The Wisdom of The Great Mother
Sunday, May 8, 2016 11:30AM-1:00PM
The 8th of every month is Tara Day. Tara is a female enlightened being, who is a manifestation of the ultimate wisdom of all the Buddhas, and she is also known as the Great Mother. How fitting that Mother’s Day falls on Tara Day this year! Join us to contemplate and develop gratitude for the kindness, compassion and wisdom of mothers everywhere.
24-Hour Tara Retreat
Sunday, May 8, 2016
In addition to being a female Buddha and manifestation of the ultimate wisdom of all the Buddhas, Tara is also a manifestation of the completely purified wind element. She is swift as the wind! Prayers made to Green Tara are especially powerful for removing obstacles. During this special retreat we engage in the practice called Liberation from Sorrow every four hours for a 24-hour period. Join us and enjoy these beautiful prayers and praises and connect to the enlightened female energy, a pure manifestation of our own unlimited potential. Free of charge.
Dipamkara Meditation Center (DMC)
Long Island Center For Kadampa Buddhism
Dipamkara Meditation Center is located on the beautiful North Shore of Long Island, NY. It is a non-profit, volunteer-based organization offering weekly drop-in classes, beginner meditation classes, day courses, classes for children and families, day and weekend retreats and in-depth study programs.
In our effort to help more and more people find inner peace and a meaningful life we are continuously working to expand our programs throughout the Long Island area and welcome your requests.
Dipamkara Meditation Center offers general program classes (classes open to everyone) that usually begin with a guided meditation. The meditation is followed by a 40 minute teaching on an aspect of the series topic for that month. After the teaching there is usually another brief guided meditation as well as a question and answer period. You don't need to have experience in meditation or Buddhism to attend classes. All you need is the wish to improve yourself and the quality of your life. |
