At Universal Chan we do a wide variety of activities ranging from those more commonly practiced in many Buddhist centers, such as sitting meditation, to lesser known methods such as exercise and walking Chan. We typically start with a short service, and then proceed to Dharma talk. After Dharma talk, we will have some time left for some sitting meditation. Please email info@universalchan.org if you have any questions. Looking forward to seeing you for Dharma talk and Meditation Class!
