Ven. Bhikkhu Bodhi | Saturday Full-Day Meditation Program (6:00 am – 8:00 pm; ET, US)

On five successive Saturdays, beginning February 17th, Ven. Bhikkhu Bodhi will be leading a full-day program of Dharma practice. The day will begin at 6 am ET, with a 30-minute meditation sitting followed by a 20-minute session of chanting. Then we will meet again from 9:30 am to 11:20 am, for three sessions of practice: a sitting based on mindfulness of breathing, a session of walking meditation, and a sitting based on loving-kindness meditation. We will resume in the afternoon, from 2 pm to 4 pm, when Bhante will guide us through the “perceptions that lead to the Deathless,” based on the Numerical Discourses (Anguttara Nikaya), Book of Fives, suttas 61, 62, 69–71, and 72. In the evening, we will come together again at 7 pm, for a chance to ask questions, and then settle in for another short sitting and an extended sharing of merits.
This program will take place on the following Saturdays:
Feb. 17, Feb. 24, March 2, March 9, and March 16.
The schedule (all times are Eastern US Time):
6 am–6:50 am: Sitting and chanting
9:30 am–11:20 am: Sitting (mindfulness of breathing), walking, and sitting (loving-kindness)
2 pm–4 pm: Meditation based on “perceptions that lead to the Deathless.”
