Monthly Online Quaker-Buddhist Meditation

March 31, 2025, 9:16 PM - June 26, 2025, 9:16 PM US/Pacific

Multnomah Friends Meeting

Hi, Friends!

On the last Monday evening of each month there’s an online meditation group for Quakers interested in Buddhism and how it can support our Quaker practice. This month I’m excited to share that we’ll be joined by guest teacher Ven. Yönten, a Tibetan Buddhist chaplain who will lead us in a meditation on finding grounding and dealing with fear/anxiety in these turbulent times. Her warm, engaging, and ecumenical approach speaks well to Friends. 

Please come if this topic speaks to you, and feel free to share this event with others you know! Deepening our relationship to silence and reflection in these times is an important aspect of the spiritual life and self care, and it has ripple effects—thank you for your spiritual journey, and I’m grateful to walk alongside one another as we go.

Anyone interested in Buddhist meditation and discovering how it can support Quakerly practice is welcome join us our monthly gathering:
