Join Joseph Mauricio, Dharma Junkies and Cary Tamura of The Sitting Project in Times Square for a group meditations in Times Square October 26th, 2025 at 4pm.
This meditation will be held by the red steps and in front of the Father Duffy statue in the middle of Times Square for about one hour. All are invited to join and no experience necessary but we do recommend that you bring a cushion or something to sit on (helps keep your posture comfortable). We are happy to provide meditation instruction prior to the group sit upon request. Contact us here.
Our purpose in sitting is not to protest anything but simply to cultivate awareness in ourselves and to promote the practice of sitting meditation at large. People are free to join and leave the sit as their schedule allows. If you can only join for 5 minutes, thats ok.
