    Discover the Essence of Presence: Non-Dual Meditation Gathering

    Join us for a unique meditation experience rooted in the timeless teachings of Advaita Vedanta. This gathering invites you to explore the nature of awareness beyond concepts and beliefs, guiding you to a direct experience of your true Self. Through guided meditation, silent sitting, and shared inquiry, we delve into the wisdom of non-duality—where separation dissolves, and the wholeness of our being is realized.

    Whether you are new to meditation or a seasoned practitioner, this space is designed for deep reflection and connection. Come with an open heart and discover the peace that arises naturally when the mind settles into its own nature. We look forward to exploring together!

    “There are three possibilities in life: to be something, nothing, or everything. In the first, there is suffering; in the second, there is peace, and in the third, there is happiness and peace” -Rupert Spira.

    “All that is or could ever be known is experience, and all there is to experience is the knowing of it” -Rupert Spira

    “Understanding dissolves the mind, Love dissolves the body” -Rupert Spira

    Welcome to our community.

    Edward Duncan

    Executive Director • Instructor

    I was introduced to mindfulness and meditation many years ago and it has cultivated the landscape to come to the realization and recognize the fact that who I essentially am has nothing to do with my thoughts, feelings, sensations, and perceptions.   This practice has provided me with the tools to navigate and be present with the ever-changing, and at times, treacherous terrain called life.  I wish as a young teenager growing up in the Bronx, I had these tools in my toolbox to allow me to be present with all of the internal discomfort and uneasiness associated with growing up.
