About this Event

In a city that never stops moving, finding time to rest the mind can feel like a luxury. But real calm is closer than you think. Starting Friday, February 13th, Dharma Treasury Temple begins a new season of Chan meditation sessions — moments to pause, breathe, and return to yourself.

Led by Buddhist monastics, each gathering blends silent practice with the warmth of community and a shared cup of tea. It’s a simple space, open to all, where you can:

✨ Release stress and cultivate clarity

✨ Strengthen patience and resilience for daily life

✨ Share stillness and tea with like-hearted people

Sometimes peace doesn’t comae from adding more to life, but from learning to let go. Each session is an invitation to experience that for yourself.


Testimonial:

"The one thing I find with this practice in particular, is that I quickly get to face the issues that are preventing me from being a better, wiser person." — Miguel
