Our Approach
The groups that make up the Coast and City Sangha follow a broad, secular approach.
This approach values what it is that people actually experience, both in meditation and in daily life. Within the framework of the teachings of the Buddha, this approach gives us a way to explore, and come to understand more about, these experiences and our inner worlds.
We encourage you to approach meditation with gentleness and curiosity, allowing your own unique experience to unfold naturally; being open to, and cultivating awareness of, the rich variety of experiences that make up our inner lives, and coming to appreciate in a new way even those aspects we may usually view as unacceptable or mundane.
