UPDATE:  We will meet at MDC at 10:00AM and head from there to Asilomar Beach for meditation.  Other important updates below!

• Meet to Carpool at 10:00am at MDC:  We will gather at the Manjushri Dharma Center at 10:00am and carpool to the Asilomar Conference Grounds/Asilomar Beach.  We will learn and practice walking meditation, and we may also practice sitting meditation.
• Instead of “LuckyPot” Bring your own bag lunch:  After the formal meditation, we will gather around a beach campfire to eat together.  It’s hard to pull off a lucky pot (potluck) on the beach, so instead, please bring your own “trashless” bag lunch–pack out what you pack in!
• MDC will provide:  campfire, hot tea, lemon mint water, and possibly soup (in mason jars) and veggie sausages for roasting.  (no smores, too much sugar, but BYO!)
• Please Bring Your Own:  bag lunch, chair or beach blanket, warm layers, and anything you’d like to play with at the beach.

Rinpoche invites all to carpool, bike or walk down to Asilomar State Beach where we learn and practice walking meditation.  In walking meditation, you direct your attention to the movement of your feet and legs, and the motion of your body as it advances.  You feel your feet on the ground, and arrive fully to the present moment.

After the walking meditation, participants are invited to bust out the beach blankets and some food as we gather around a campfire on the beach.

Parking at Asilomar:  Parking is free at the Asilomar Conference Grounds, or there is parking on the street on Sunset Blvd.
