A 30 minute session of calm abiding meditation, also known as Samatha meditation. Marcela Szwarc has guided people through each meditation class.
In calm abiding, we fostered the mind’s ability to be still, and on our mindfulness of breath through mantra. The class was open to beginners as well as regular practitioners.
Calm abiding steadies, composes, unifies and concentrates the mind, while obscuring distractions and bringing out inner tranquility.
