Welcome to Toronto Meditative Inquiry
Toronto Meditative Inquiry offers newcomers and old hands alike a place to meditate and cultivate awareness in simplicity. Meditative inquiry does not involve rituals, particular practices, or the acceptance of any belief system, but instead invites us to become interested in what is happening in this moment. The group takes its inspiration from the work of Toni Packer and her retreat center in Upstate New York, Springwater Center (www.springwater
center.org), as well as Eckhart Tolle, Krishnamurti and other teachers.
We meet Sunday evenings from 7pm to 9pm at The Centering Space, 59 Cambridge Avenue, Toronto (steps from the Broadview subway station). Our meetings include meditation sittings, walking meditation, Group Dialogue and, about once per month, a recorded talk from a recognized teacher. Voluntary donations are welcome to cover the cost of our rented space ($5 per meeting suggested). Please check the Schedule, Location, Contacts tab on this website for up-to-date information on our meetings.
All are warmly welcome.

"The emergence and blossoming of understanding, love and intelligence has nothing to do with any tradition, no matter how ancient or impressive — it has nothing to do with time. It happens completely on its own when a human being questions, wonders, listens and looks without getting stuck in fear, pleasure and pain. When self concern is quiet, in abeyance, heaven and earth are open. The mystery, the essence of all life is not separate from the silent openness of simple listening."
