Q Sangha is a
community that practices Buddhism in the
tradition of Zen Master Thich Nhat Hanh.
As part of the MCC family, we meet on
Monday evenings from 7 to 9 p.m. for
meditation and to share the challenges
and fruits of practice.
Everyone is welcome, regardless of
religious affiliation or meditation experience. A
typical evening includes 25 minutes of sitting
meditation, 10 minutes of walking meditation, a dharma
talk, group discussion and singing. We frequently have
guest speakers.
The "Q" in Q Sangha refers to Queer,
which includes lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender
people. Sangha is the Buddhist term of spiritual
community.
Our practice helps us
to be present and accepting and to calm
our bodies and minds. From this place,
it is easier to live with greater
compassion, understanding and happiness.
When: Mondays
from 7 - 9 p.m.
Where:
Since MCC on Eureka Street has closed,
we are practicing temporarily at the
Hartford Zen Center, 57 Hartford
near 18th Street in the Castro.
