Welcome to the Center for Contemplative Practice

Programs and practices for a peaceful life

Anyone can be an instructor.  Few are teachers.

Immersed in their knowledge, teachers impart deeper understanding, not just more information.

True teachers are dedicated to their subject and to the craft and practice of teaching itself.  A teacher makes the complex and intricate clear and comprehensible: teaching in many different ways, in response to students’ individual needs.

 Teachers ignite your sense of wonder and your desire to know more from the depths of their own delight.

This is our promise to you: We are teachers, and what we teach will infuse your life with meaning and peace.
