Sitting quietly in meditation is a central part of our practice. Sitting quietly TOGETHER brings the support of our Sangha, or community of practitioners, to our own meditation practice. By studying and talking together after the quiet sitting period, we can deepen our understanding of this 2,600-year-old practice we are undertaking.

Dharma Zephyr sitting groups meet in Reno, Carson City, Lake Tahoe and Minden/Gardnerville. We welcome all comers; you don’t have to be Buddhist to attend. Beginners are always welcome at all groups. Each group is organized differently and has its own unique culture. There is no cost to attend, though a practice of generosity through donations is welcomed.

Because conditions keep changing, so do our groups. Please contact each group before attending as they may meet in person, on zoom, or hybrid. Scroll down to see our sitting groups.
