Meditation

Meditation brings wisdom. Lack of meditation leaves ignorance. Know well what leads you forward, and what holds you back.

Dhammapada

Traditionally, the Stoic cardinal virtue of Temperance or Moderation represented the equanimity of mind to avoid the temptations of worldly vice. Meditation is the practice of cultivating attention and directing focus with intention. When meditation is achieved, Temperance will follow.

Starting with a simple meditation on the breath, our mind training program will gradually develop attention and focus while exploring techniques such as mantra, visualization, and pneumaturgic breathwork that can be used to alter the state of consciousness for meditative effect.
