What to Expect at the Triratna Tokyo Meditation Class

The morning combines guided meditation with Buddhist teachings and group reflection. During the session, participants share personal challenges. They also talk through ways to grow through kindness, compassion and awareness.

Above all, the group places weight on spiritual friendship—members supporting one another along the way. As a result, conversation is as much a part of the morning as sitting practice.
