SIM meets online and in-person at the Sacramento Dharma Center
What is Dana?
Dana is a Buddhist word that means generosity or heart. Nearly all Sacramento Insight Meditation activities are offered on a dana (donations) basis. This means our programs are sustained by the generosity of instructors in offering teachings freely and on the generosity of students and members of the meditative community in the form of financial support, service and participation in events. Practice dana, please support our Sangha. DONATE NOW

Family Sangha
SDCFamily Sangha meetings are held 10 am – noon on the second Sunday of the month.
Family Sangha welcomes those who want to develop dharma practice in a family setting—parents, grandparents, uncles, aunts, and more. We offer indoor and outdoor activities for children, expressing values of the Buddha way: compassion, curiosity, generosity, kindness, and mindfulness. Adults have time for meditation, play, and discussion. Please bring snacks, clothes suitable for outdoor play, and remain on the premises for the entire session if you bring children. Please let us know if you are interested in a tween and teen group.
Family Sangha is sponsored by the Sacramento Dharma Center; any dana you can offer for expenses is gratefully appreciated.
