Purpose/Vision/Strategy:

The purpose of this community is to encourage a small & passionate group of practitioners to deepen their meditative capacity together.

Our vision is to remain a relatively small community of practice, supported by an intimate circle of quality meditation teachers.

Our strategy is to begin small and slowly expand the number of groups we can host, corresponding with an increase in the variety of meditation objects we support.

Features of the Jhana.community

  • Jhāna Practice Groups

    Join a group of practitioners who are working with the same meditation object each week for an hour. Hosted by a teacher.

  • Live Stream Teachings

    Regular live stream teachings, from a variety of teachers, that members can engage with live, or watch later.

  • Pre-Recorded Courses

    We’ve got a growing catalog of self-paced digital learning material organized around learning the jhānas.

Find your Meditation Object(s)

Each group is focused on a particular meditation object,
and is hosted by Vince Fakhoury Horn.

Members can join as many groups as they like, so long as they are working with those objects regularly in their meditation practice.
