This class includes 1/2 hour of Vipassana meditation instruction and guided meditation followed by an hour-long dharma talk. This is a large gathering of approximately 250-300 people.

Book Table and Lending Library

In the Buddhist tradition of circulating dharma material, the IMCW lending library is now available at the Book Table every week. You are invited to donate Buddhist related books, magazines, tapes and CD's to our growing Lending Library. Check out the table, see something of interest, fill in the sign-out sheet and take the material home to enjoy. Items can be returned or donated on any Wednesday night.

Blessing Circle

IMCW offers the Blessing Circle to comfort and support those experiencing loss, grief, illness or any of the "10,000 sorrows" of this life. We gather for a 30-minute service of sharing, mindful and supportive listening, and metta practice. Together we offer blessings to all in need as we take refuge together in the Buddha, the Dharma and the Sangha. 

2nd Wednesday of each month after class. (Please see the calendar.)
