On Demand: Practice with IMS teachers on your schedule, at your own pace!

Metta
is the Pali word for friendship or lovingkindness. It is taught as a meditation that cultivates our natural capacity for an open and loving heart. With its roots in practices said to have been taught by the Buddha himself, metta is traditionally offered along with meditations that enrich compassion, joy in the happiness of others, and equanimity. These practices lead to the development of concentration, fearlessness, happiness, and a greater ability to love.

Open to both new and experienced meditators, this retreat includes instructions for sitting and walking meditation practice, Q&A, and talks about the teachings. All are welcome!

Cost is sliding-scale: $150, $220, or $400, your choice. Paying at a higher rate helps IMS to offer ongoing support to teachers and staff during this period of closure. For more information, please email imsonline@dharma.org.
