NIGHT OWLS Saturday Midnight Online Buddhist Meditation Session(EN/ES)
Welcome, Night Owls, to our Saturday midnight online Buddhist meditation class!
Meditation is more than just peace and calm—it offers so much more! American Chan (or Zen in Japanese) encourages continuous growth that goes beyond mindfulness. While many associate meditation with relaxation, our American Chan meditation leads to even greater benefits, including profound peace and bliss, achieved more quickly and deeply. With dedication and proper guidance, you can enhance your skills and concentration.
Why Choose Chan Meditation?
While there are many meditation methods, the true origin of meditation lies in Buddhism. Although meditation has become mainstream in the West, finding effective guidance can still be challenging due to limited resources or teachers. As our world becomes more stressful, the need for powerful meditation results grows. That’s where American Chan meditation comes in.
In American Chan, we emphasize increasing your samadhi power. As your Samadhi (concentration) deepens, you’ll see improvements in every aspect of your life—mental and physical health, productivity, creativity, relationships, and problem-solving.
Meet the BLI Instructors
Our classes are led by Buddhist monks and nuns from Bodhi Light International (BLI), a non-profit religious organization dedicated to benefiting all beings through the teachings of Mahayana Buddhism. The founder of BLI, Chan Master YongHua, is an American Buddhist monk based in California. He has trained over 20 monastic disciples from diverse backgrounds, all united by a passion for cultivation and service.
BLI’s instructors are trained to provide personalized guidance, ensuring each participant finds the most suitable methods for their level. Unlike traditional Buddhist teaching styles, BLI’s instructors are adept at teaching new generations and Westerners.
Join us for a peaceful and rejuvenating meditation session from the comfort of your home. Let go of the week’s stress and start your weekend with a clear mind and calm spirit.
