KAOHSIUNG / 04
01 / GETTING STARTED
A quiet place
to begin.
Meditation is an integral part of the center's yoga practice. Postures help the body relax and become comfortable for sitting; meditation turns attention inward.
The beginner course described on the original site combines practice, theory, sharing and journaling. It prepares students for a personal meditation technique and guidance from a trained monk or nun.
02 / PERSONAL GUIDANCE
Learn at your
own pace.
One-to-one learning
A trained teacher introduces a personal technique and offers follow-up guidance as you practice.
A daily habit
Regular practice, often before breakfast and dinner, brings meditation into ordinary life.
The traditional teaching arrangement pairs men with male monks and women with female nuns. The Chinese site outlines a sequence of six lessons, introduced gradually when a student is ready.
The original English page also describes a free 15-week beginner course. Please contact the center to ask whether a course is currently scheduled.
