Meditation Center Reopens
After a brief pause during which it vacated its Sag Harbor quarters, Kadampa Meditation Center has reopened at 720C Montauk Highway in Water Mill.
Another change at the center, which offers weekday guided meditation instruction, a Friday evening class on Buddhist wisdom followed by a vegetarian dinner, and Sunday morning teachings, is the arrival of a new teacher.
On Sunday, Elizabeth Muzyka, who had previously been the center’s primary teacher, delivered the first instruction at the Water Mill location, a talk, guided meditation, and question-and-answer session on karma, often called the law of action or the principal of cause and effect. She will offer a workshop on Sunday from 10 a.m. to 1 p.m. on the topic of love. The workshop is free for members, $15 for nonmembers.
Ms. Muzyka succeeds Gen Kelsang Norden, a Buddhist nun who served as Kadampa Meditation Center’s teacher for the past five years. A native of Bath, England, who has taught Buddhism and meditation for more than 20 years, Ms. Norden has relocated to Houston, where she continues to teach.
