Current status – Eyes of Compassion

We are located in Denver, Colorado, USA. We have been continuously sitting together, in the Plum Village tradition of Thich Nhat Hanh, since 2001.

Eyes of Compassion Sangha meets twice (or sometimes three times) weekly. We invite you to sit with us in person every Thursday evening, 7:00 – 9:00 pm at University Park United Methodist Church, 2180 S. University Blvd., Denver. Practices include sitting and walking meditation, tea meditation, dharma readings and discussion. A greeter will welcome you and answer any questions. In addition, you can join us online on Zoom every Sunday morning, 10:00 – 11:00 am for guided and silent meditation, dharma readings and discussion. Our Wake Up Denver group, for people in their 20s and 30s, also meets in person at University Park UMC, on 1st and 3rd Wednesday evenings, 6:30 – 8:00 pm.

Our Sangha

We are located in Denver, Colorado, U. S. A. We have been continuously sitting together since 2001. We come from all backgrounds, cultures and ideologies and have been drawn together by the Plum Village tradition and the teachings of Thich Nhat Hanh. We sit together with the intention of increasing peacefulness and insight in families, our society, and ourselves. We have a wonderfully diverse group of practitioners, some with very little experience, others with many years of sitting.

Eyes of Compassion welcomes everyone regardless of your racial or ethnic heritage, gender identification, or sexual orientation. We expressly support the Call to Love in Action issued by the ARISE Sangha in our Tradition, and the Statement Speaking Out Against Anti-Asian Violence issued by the San Francisco Zen Center.

We meet in person once a week on Thursdays from 7:00 to 9:00 pm, and once a week on Zoom on Sundays from 10:00 to 11:00 am. Our Wake Up Denver group (for people in their 20’s and 30’s) meets in person twice a month on the 1st and 3rd Wednesdays, 6:30 to 8:00 pm. Join our e-mail list to get the Zoom links (see below).
