Meditation with a Monk

Recently, a silly man wrote an op-ed proclaiming mass retailer Amazon should take over libraries from the current government-funded libraries. His claim was that libraries used to provide services way beyond book borrowing, but they have fallen to the wayside. Any library user knows this to be a terrible idea and a false claim. There’s no better counter-example than Meditation with a Monk, a weekly series at Carnegie Library-East Liberty (other sessions at Cooper-Siegel and Oakmont libraries) hosted by Pittsburgh Buddhist Center. The all-level class teaches vipassana meditation, focusing on calming your mind and bodily awareness.
