Meditation can help practitioners unwind from the stress of their daily lives. Anyone can use spiritual meditation at home or in a house of worship. Various forms of meditation exist. Focused attention meditation may be the easiest form for beginners. It entails focusing on a particular thing, sound, or sensation. A common stimulus is breath awareness, in which practitioners gently dismiss all other thoughts and focus on their breathing. Primordial Sound Meditation (PSM) or mantra-based meditation uses a mantra unique to each practitioner. Individuals silently repeat the mantra, which helps them focus. Transcendental meditation is also a mantra-based meditation. It uses mantras and promotes inner calmness, creativity, energy, mind clarity, and happiness.

With a focus on education and psychology, Robert Fettgather teaches at Mission College. Alongside teaching psychology, Robert Fettgather served as a co-founder and discussion leader at the Tashi Lhunpo Sangha. The Tashi Lhunpo Sangha is a Buddhist meditation group in Palo Alto, California that offers a haven for individuals looking for peace of mind and connection. It aims to create a community of friends who practice the dharma together and mutually foster and enjoy awareness, love, harmony, and acceptance.

Gatherings are free and open to everyone.
