What is Ghatika Monthly?

Ghatika Monthly is an in-person and virtual gathering held on the 2nd Saturday of every month, in which CCR expert teachers offer accessible guidance in foundational yet transformative contemplative practices. Ghatika is the Sanskrit term for one 24-minute meditation session, which is the recommended length for beginning meditators. At Ghatika Monthly, we hope to offer a taste of the contemplative technology that our full-time contemplative scientists cultivate for 8-12 hours per day at Miyo Samten Ling Hermitage in Crestone.
