Ngondro (6:00PM) & Silent Meditation (6:30PM)

Join an evening of contemplative practice at Olmo Ling Temple, where participants are welcome to attend either session or stay for both. The Ngondro, or preliminary teachings of Bon Buddhism, begins at 6:00 PM EST, followed by Silent Meditation at 6:30 PM EST. You do not need to practice Bon Buddhism to take part in the meditation session.

This Wednesday evening practice is free and open to all, offering a supportive opportunity to meditate in a group setting. Practicing alongside others can help cultivate consistency, steadiness, and a deeper sense of presence in your meditation journey.

Silence will be maintained throughout the session, beginning with the second ringing of the bell after the opening chant. The meditation will include two 20-minute sitting periods, separated by a 10-minute walking meditation, creating a balanced rhythm of stillness and mindful movement.
