Take a deep breath. It’s free.

philosophy

Nothing is separate from anything else

Non-dual­ity is not a belief you take on. It is already the case, before anyone names it. There is no reli­gion here, no creed, no method you must follow. Every­one med­i­tates their own way. We simply meet, once a week, and sit in silence (for free).

Round meditation cushions and woven floor poufs laid out on a wooden floor.

The Room Does What You Cannot Do Alone

Some people call it the Master Mind.A mind on its own runs down.Sev­eral, held in har­mony, carryone another the way bat­ter­ies do.

A circle of people sitting on the floor of a bright loft, meditating together.

arrival

01 Arrive

7:00 – 7:15 pm

A quar­ter hour to arrive prop­erly.

Chairs are set out, and you are wel­come to bring your own cush­ion if you prefer the floor. Coming a few min­utes early leaves time to say hello and settle before the bell.

A doormat reading “come as you are” at the top of a set of steps.

meditation

02 Meditate

7:15 – 8:00 pm

Forty-five min­utes, unin­ter­rupted.

The group sits in silence for forty-five min­utes. A bell opens it and a bell closes it; that is the whole of the form. Sit, breathe, follow the prac­tice that is yours, or follow none.

A cairn of flat stones balanced on driftwood, the shore behind it lost in fog.

integration

03 Integrate

8:00 – 8:30 pm

What the prac­tice leaves behind.

We end with deep talks: con­scious­ness, spir­i­tu­al­ity, you name it. Lis­ten­ing is enough. Leav­ing at eight is normal.

Four people sitting together with mugs of tea, mid-conversation, seen past a raised cup.

about

Who We Are

Meditation MTL is a weekly in-person meditation circle in Montréal for anyone drawn to meditation, non-dual­ity or awak­en­ing. There is no teacher and no doc­trine to agree with. People arrive from long prac­tices and from none. Every­one med­i­tates the way they already med­i­tate.

We meet every Tues­day at CEDA on rue Delisle, third floor, Room 307. There are chairs, and there is no charge. Bring a cush­ion if you have one. If you’ve never come before, now’s the time.
