Saturdays 7:30 am The Barn, First Church Unity. Started 25 years ago by a few people who desired to meet regularly to meditate and to discuss Buddhist philosophy. Today the group has over 30 members from diverse backgrounds who form a loosely organized sangha of veteran practitioners and rank beginners. Since it is not affiliated with any specific Zen school, the center invites various Zen masters to lead retreats during the year. All sessions have a format of sitting and walking meditation followed by reading and discussion. Each lasts about two hours. Newcomers are welcome! Saturday orientation for new attendees: 7:15. www.nashvillezencenter.org.
Brand new this spring, the Nashville Zen Center offers a new Tuesday night meeting especially for new sitters or the curious! Also at the Barn, 7 p.m. every Tuesday night.! Contact us for details.

TWDD represents a powerful tool to unfold our inner peace and to develop true happiness.
During each meditation session, we will give about half hour on-going teaching on " the three principle aspects of the path of true happiness" - a fundamental study set forth for successful meditation practices. Also we will do half hour standing meditation, 45 minutes of sitting meditation, as well as a short QA session.
The essence of TWDD meditation is to preoccupy one’s body, mind and speech with (holding) Mudra, (visualizing) Guru and (speaking) Mantra. In just a matter of 2 hours/per day in up to 7 days, all practitioners will be able to establish the connection to their own Dharma Nature, thereby generating the confidence to continue on the journey of spiritual development.

My long-time friend Noah Levine, author of Dharma Punx and Against the Stream, shaped my first experiences in meditation and counseling. His father, Stephen Levine, was a great meditation teacher and an inspiration to both of us. Stephen used Vipassana meditation with healing techniques that include all faiths. It was through his books that I got involved in hospice work, grief counseling and death and dying.

We have the unique opportunity to meet as peers and to speak freely about our individual approaches to practice.
We provide a space for reflection, discussion, mutual support, and learning. Each meeting begins with meditation instruction and a brief period of sitting. Our meetings focus on assigned readings as well as readings we will do as a group that cover a rich and diverse overview of relevant Buddhist teachings and topics.
Members are encouraged to share their personal experiences regarding their personal practice and spiritual journey.
We realize that all of us are both students and teachers at different moments of our lives--we all have something to teach and we all have something to learn.
Everyone is valuable and everyone is welcome regardless of religion, race, sexual orientation, gender identity, or previous meditation experience.
