Queer Dharma

Sundays from 6:30pm - 8:30 pm

The Queer Dharma Meditation Group is free meditation open house that caters to Chicago's LGBTI group. Queer Dharma provides a safe and sane environment in which the unique concerns and experiences of LGBTQ individuals can be freely discussed, but everyone is welcome.

Meditation instruction is provided at the beginning of each session, followed by sitting and walking meditation till 8pm. This is followed by a break for refreshments and a reading/discussion related to meditation in action. Come for meditation and for the reading, or just the meditation.

Meditation practice provides a warm, genuine basis for realizing the full potential of our inherent wisdom. Through the practice, we learn to touch in with this wisdom, allowing us to live our lives with a mind that is more present and fully engaged. Waking up to our own inherent goodness has a natural impact on our family members, friends, co-workers, and our world at large.
