Group meditation every Sunday morning meditation at Sacred Ground Sally Bardsley
began holding meditation classes at Sacred Ground in 2001. Though meditation
practice went through fits and starts, a core group of meditators formed
the Dharma Practice Group, begun in June of 2006, to provide a practice
setting to explore Buddhist teachings and meditation and incorporate them
into their way of life. currently Steve Heinz, PhD, a retired psychologist who has been studying and practicing for over 30 years, leads the Dharma Practice Group. While not affiliated with any larger institution or with any specific lineage or style of Buddhism, teachings and methods from each of the major Buddhist traditions are utilized, including Theravadin, Tibetan, and Zen Buddhism. No prior knowledge of Buddhism or meditation is required. All who are interested are welcome to attend. The Dharma Practice Group meets weekly at Sacred Ground on Sunday mornings for 30 minutes of meditation followed by a Dharma talk and discussion. Meditation mats and cushions are available for anyone’s use. Check our monthly calendar for the current meeting time. On the first Saturday of even-numbered
months, a daylong session is held at Sacred Ground from 8:30am to approximately
5:00pm. This daylong session consists of alternating periods of sitting
meditation and walking meditation, and includes a Dharma talk. Individual
interviews may also be scheduled, by appointment, with Steve to discuss
one’s personal practice and how to apply Buddhist teachings and methods
to the individual circumstances of one’s life. For further information,
