A Peaceful Place in the Heart of SF
Did you know that many of the classes at the San Francisco Buddhist Center are open to everyone and that, in many cases, you can simply “drop in” and join the group meditation? I didn’t know until about a month ago. I’d been wanting to learn to meditate for a long time, and it has seemed to me that the more I put off learning (and, of course, practicing), the more cluttered my life became with relationships and situations that required more-than-a-little “centeredness.” The Buddhist Center made it easy for me to stop planning to go and just do it. I didn’t need to call ahead and, since they welcome meditators of all experience levels, I didn’t feel out of place once I arrived.
Well, I’ve been meditating, on my own and at the Center, for about a month now. To be honest, I’m not sure how much in my life has changed yet, as far as my relationships and other situations go, but I can truly say that I have changed. I feel far more peaceful than I ever did and in such a short time. I guess it really is true that peace is always within us, if we just take the time to “drop in” to our center and experience it.
