Discover the profound stillness that is always with us beneath the turbulence of all our thoughts and emotions.
Based on recent teachings by Sogyal Rinpoche, this in-depth meditation class, for both new and continuing students, shows how we can allow the mind to settle quietly, in its own natural peace. Then what happens is quite extraordinary, and can bring us more confidence, clarity, compassion, and presence in everything we do.

San Diego Rigpa Center Meditation Class—On Site and Online Options
Where do you go to learn to meditate? Or where do you go to refine the meditation skills you already have?
Rigpa U.S. is offering meditation classes at its San Diego Rigpa Meditation Center, downtown on 13th street between City College and Petco Park. Entitled "What Meditation Really Is", the class series runs 10 weeks, beginning January 27th (It's okay to join a week late or enter on the 6th week, but it would be good to contact the center to let them know you're coming) and ending March 31st. The classes begin at 7 p.m. and end promptly at 9 p.m.
The classes will also be available live online with the option to join in the discussion in the center! The online group is facilitated by an instructor.
These classes are based on the newest meditation instructions given by Sogyal Rinpoche, Tibetan author, teacher, and meditation master. They will be led by senior Rigpa students using both their own experience and video clips of Rinpoche. Suitable for those who haven't meditated and those who already have a meditation practice.
Last week's class had an extraordinary atmosphere of peace and contentment stemming from the teachings and our practice. I urge you to come and enjoy yourself in our growing, friendly Dharma community. Refreshments and snacks will be provided.
Parking is on the street or in the paid parking lot one block south of the center, which is in the Art Center building at 13th & G Street. Our door is the second from the south end of the building, facing 13th street. Push the "Rigpa" button at the door to gain entry. If that doesn't make sense, just call the center at 619-906-4291 and we'll help you out.
It helps to come a bit early to find your parking space.
There's a small donation/fee for the classes is suggested; a sliding scale can help out those who need it.

Meditation —"Just Be"—Video Teaching from Sogyal Rinpoche
More than half the local San Diego Rigpa sangha is away in the South of France at Lerab Ling, Rigpa's international retreat center. There's a skeleton crew (sounds vaguely Dharmic, doesn't it?) holding down the office. They're certainly available if you want to order books or teachings from ZAM, the Rigpa publications arm. Books and teachings can certainly bridge the gap until classes resume in the Fall and we see Sogyal Rinpoche here (!!!) at the Bahia Hotel retreat in November.
Meanwhile, since I (Laura) am still in San Diego wanting to be closer to my teacher today, I searched Youtube for a video. How wonderful is this technology?
This video is well worth the time. Running just under ten minutes, I found that it cut through my thoughts and brought me back to the present in a very loving way. ("Just Be" is something he talks about, not the name of the teaching, FYI.)
I found that it got really juicy after the 8 minute mark, so hold on at least until you hear the bit about the "Natural Strip Tease". It's about stripping away layers until you find your true self.
Enjoy! And remember, you can always just bookmark this post to watch it later. It's perfect for anyone who finds themselves busy and distracted ever. Anyone ever feel like that? :-)
May you be happy, well, and safe.
