SUMMARY:Tri-Daily Meditation Guide (Second Sitting)
DESCRIPTION:Master Sheng Yen once said,“Meditation is the best means to understand and transform oneself”.\nOur tri-daily meditation sittings led by the resident monks at the Fremont center aim to help everyone develop a regular sitting practice. With daily evening meditation, you can go straight to bed afterwards for a restful sleep; and with morning sessions, you’ll maintain a calm and relaxed mind throughout the day.\nMost Buddhist practitioners spend more time thinking than practicing. We invite everyone to join us and discover the benefits that meditation brings.\n【Daily Schedule】Starting 2026/01/19\nSecond Sitting: 7:40 – 8:40 sitting meditation & 8:55 – 9:10 short morning service (online & in person)\n——How to Participate and Other Details——\nSecond Sitting – How to join: In person or online via ZOOM\n*We recommend that participants first complete our Beginners’ Chan Meditation Class.\n7:40 – 8:40 Sitting meditation accompanied by our monastics in residence, with no verbal guidance. In-person participants may quietly take a seat upon arrival.\n8:40 – 8:55 Self-massage and a short break\n8:55 – 9:10 Short morning service\nAfter 9:10 You are warmly invited to stay for coffee and informal Dharma chat with our monastics in residence!\n【In-person Participation】\nNo registration is required, and you may enter the Chan Hall at any time during the sitting – no need to worry about being late.\nWhen you arrive, please help yourself to a square cushion, round cushion, towels, or chair as needed. After the session, kindly return everything to storage and tidy up your area.\nPlease adhere to Noble Silence until 8:40, when the sitting period ends. After self-message and a short break, there will be a brief morning service from 8:55, ending at around 9:10. After that, you are warmly welcome to stay for coffee.\nThere will be no reception and no meals provided. Everything is entirely self-served.\nWe recommend this session for those who already have a basic foundation in meditation.\n【Additional notes for in-person sittings】\nAfter entering, men and women do not need to sit on separate sides. Please just take any available seat in the Chan Hall.\nWhen you enter the Chan Hall, please do so quickly; there is no need to greet anyone.\nYou do not need to prepare cushions for anyone else.\nDuring sitting meditation, please face the wall.\nPlease remember to turn off your mobile phone or set it to silent mode.\nPlease enter through the glass door at the back of the Guanyin Hall.\n【ZOOM Link】\n\nZoom Meeting ( https://us02web.zoom.us/j/86704064922?pwd=R1VsZzBUbE1KT1cwcHZraUNSYzU4UT09#success )\nMeeting ID: 867 0406 4922\nPasscode: 0000\n\n \n
