Your car doesn’t run on empty. Neither should you. Chan meditation and tea, every Saturday in San Francisco.
About this Event

You wouldn’t drive an electric car at 3% and hope for the best. Most of us run our own battery that way all week: work, commutes, constant notifications, and no time to plug in.

Join us at Dharma Treasury Temple for a Saturday morning of Chan meditation and tea, hosted by Master XianXin, abbess of the temple. We sit in silence together, share a cup of tea, and leave with a fuller charge.

Even an electric car recovers energy when it slows down. Sometimes slowing down is the recharge.

What you’ll recharge

  • Calm and clarity after a draining week
  • Patience and resilience for daily life
  • Connection with like-hearted people over tea

No experience needed. Come as you are.

Master XianXin is a Buddhist nun with over a decade of monastic training under the guidance of Master Yonghua, founder of American Wei Yang. Since leaving the home life, she has been dedicated to teaching Chan meditation at Bodhi Light International (BLI) temples and through online programs worldwide. She mentors students from beginner to advanced levels, empowering them to discover their inner self and transform limiting patterns through Chan practice. Her practical and compassionate teachings have helped students cultivate resilience, inner peace, and a happier, more balanced life.
