Sangha (saṃgha: संघ) is a Sanskrit word used in many Indian languages, including Pali which means "association", "assembly", "company" or "community.”

As humans we inherently crave connection with those around us. At Long Beach Meditation we recognize the importance of cultivating community. We have experienced the potential power of meditation and mindful awareness practice to not only transform the individual, but also the world around us. Through various events and initiatives we invite you to join us in nurturing a supportive community.

Whether it is your participation, volunteering for an event, helping the environment at our beach clean-ups, joining the book club, attending retreats, or coming together in community at our Sangha Celebration, there are numerous ways to connect and engage with others. This Community Page is a hub of information for all seeking to deepen one’s practice, engage with others, and make a meaningful difference in yourself and to those around you. Make sure to check out our Long Beach Meditation Newsletter and Guiding Teacher Letters using the links below for further inspiration and support. Together we are in community on this journey to cultivate peace and well being.
