Meditation
In a delightful setting for meditation, Sahaja Yoga in Cairns holds one of their programs at the Esplanade, located near the centre of the city where hundreds of people pass by. This particular program is held at 7.30am every Saturday morning. If the weather is unsuitable to sit on the ground a covered area is provided.
This is a very tranquil site to meditate, with beautiful green lawns and nice large shady trees to sit under in the cool breeze, with the Coral Sea and rainforest-covered hills as a backdrop. The local Council promotes the sessions and is very supportive.
The program attracts attendees who visit from all corners of the world. We have people from China, Japan, Korea and other South East Asian countries, Holland, Germany, France, England, Ireland, Canada, America, and South American countries.
If you are visiting Cairns, Sahaja Yoga programs are held on Monday nights and Tuesday mornings, in addition to the Esplanade program on Saturday mornings. Programs are also held in Herberton, west of Cairns on the Atherton Tablelands. Telephone 07 4032 1860 for details.
