Meditation and Q&A/interview session with Win Thu Wun

We’ll gather for a 45-minute silent meditation session, during which each of us will practice individually, virtually. Afterwards, we’ll transition into an open group Q&A/interview session, which will run for one hour. However, participants are free to leave before the Q&A session concludes if needed. At the end of each group interview, we’ll engage in a brief mettā session and share merits.

Ongoing students of Win or Beth can participate in meditation and seek guidance during the session. Newcomers are encouraged to reach out to Win to better understand you and your practice for better support before joining the Q&A session.
