Please join us Sundays for a seated guided meditation held in a relaxed and comfortable atmosphere. Each morning program includes both a seated meditation and satsang (a philosophical discussion) led by Leonard and Jenness Perlmutter. The seated meditation practiced at AMI is known as mantra meditation. You simply sit in a chair with your head, neck and trunk straight. Close your eyes and concentrate your silent attention on any name of the Divine Reality that you are most familiar and comfortable with. The guided meditation lasts about 20 minutes. Participants sit on chairs or cross-legged on the floor. AMI instructors are always available to assist newcomers in finding a comfortable seated meditation posture. A reading and group discussion follow the guided meditation.
The Sunday meditation and satsang program is offered free of charge and registration is not required. We are honored to offer this program freely as part of our commitment to accessible spiritual education. If you feel inspired by the teachings and would like to support our efforts, your donation—of any amount—is deeply appreciated. Your contribution will help us continue to offer programs, classes, and special events for the community. Make a donation

WHAT KIND OF MEDITATION DO YOU PRACTICE?
The seated meditation practiced at AMI is known as mantra meditation. You simply sit in a straight-back chair with your head, neck and trunk straight, or on the floor with your legs in a cross-legged yoga posture if that is more comfortable. You will be asked to close your eyes and concentrate your silent attention on any name of the Divine Reality that you are most familiar and comfortable with. Do not worry if you have not been given a mantra from a qualified teacher; that is true for a large number of the participants. Here are some suggestions from different traditions:
- Jesus
- Lord Jesus Christ
- Ave Maria
- Barukh attah Adonai
- Allah
- Rama
- Om namaha Shivaya
- Om mani padme hum
The actual period for meditation begins with the sound of a bell. A reading and group discussion follow the meditation.
HOW SHOULD I DRESS FOR THE MEDITATION SESSION?
Loose, comfortable clothing is best.
