Kalyana Mitta Sangha means “community of spiritual friends” in Pali, the language of the oldest Buddhist texts. Often used to describe someone in the teacher role, the term kalyana mitta can refer to anyone on the path of self-knowledge who is a guide, support, or merely co-traveler. Our group began as a “Mindfulness Meditation for Caregivers” class founded in 2005 by Abhaya Sandy Kopka, a Hospice Chaplain then working in Lowell, Massachusetts. From time to time we are pleased to offer special events including half- and full-day workshops and retreats led by guest teachers.
Our regular meetings take place on Tuesdays from 7:30pm to 9:30pm. All are welcome, regardless of experience.
