SUMMARY:Meditation in park RESCHEDULED FOR MONDAY
LOCATION:5th Avenue and 77th Street
DESCRIPTION:Saved in Palaner as: saved\n\nPalaner match: 10% · why: lots of
  people going\n\n.\nThis meeting is for everyone who wants to learn how to
  meditate\, especially those who think they can't meditate because they ca
 n't stop their mind from thinking--a common misconception. If you're willi
 ng to be open and aware\, you can meditate\, regardless of how much or how
  little you're thinking.\nI will emphasize a simple awareness method\, but
  I'll also describe the other two common techniques\, mantra and breath wa
 tching\, in case you feel more comfortable with those.\nWe will start with
  a short 10 minute meditation\, then progress to longer sessions. In betwe
 en we will discuss our experiences and any questions that may arise. I wil
 l also describe some of the philosophy that underlies the value of meditat
 ion.\nCOST: Free.\nLOCATION: After meeting outside Central Park\, we will 
 walk about 5 minutes to a quiet patio with chairs overlooking a pond:\nCLO
 THING: Check the hourly forecast on weather.com and dress warmly enough to
  sit outside comfortably until 8 PM. mosquitoes have not been a problem in
  the past but you are free of course to wear repellent if you wish\nTRANSP
 ORTATION: 6 train to 77th St\, then walk west on 77th\, then walk 3 blocks
  west to Fifth Avenue.\nMY QUALIFICATIONS: I have been meditating daily fo
 r about fifty years. I attended a weekly Sufi silent meditation group for 
 24 years and a Buddhist one for 3.years\, àlthough my approach will be pri
 marily secular. And I wrote an article for the Berkley Wellness Letter abo
 ut myths that discourage people from meditating.
