Our Commitment to Spiritual Refuge

During this time in our country and in our world, the Cambridge Insight Meditation Center recommits to the ethical guidelines by which the Center has been guided thus far: to be a beacon of light in the midst of efforts to divide, to be an island of love in the midst of turbulence. The Buddha’s teachings of compassion and non-harm are our guides, and we offer a refuge in which all who come to practice will be welcomed and respected.

We understand that the Buddha’s three-fold path of integrity, steadfastness and wisdom are needed more than ever, and are the very foundation for wise responses. We cultivate peacefulness, friendliness and joy, and we reach out with a message of inclusivity and safety for anyone who is at risk because of being seen as “other.” We are in this life together and we express this truth through acknowledging the inherent dignity of all sentient beings. May greed, ill will, and delusion dissolve through the greater power of kindness and compassion.

Benefactor Rate

CIMC is committed to keeping the cost of programs as low as possible. As a result, our current fees take care of less than half of the Center’s expenses each year. When you register for any of our programs we invite you to choose the “Benefactor Rate” which more accurately reflects the true cost of offering the teachings. Doing so supports others in the CIMC community. Thank you for your generosity.

The Cambridge Insight Meditation Center is dedicated to creating a space that welcomes all people regardless of cultural and religious background, race, socio-economic class, sexual orientation, gender identity, age, education, and physical ability. Financial support for our programs is available to all.

As Guiding Teachers, we are committed to offering the essence of the Buddha’s message of liberation and it is our intention to apply these teachings to every aspect of daily life. We recognize that for many people, everyday life means being subject to social injustice on a regular basis. As a community and institution, we are committed to the freedom–both inner and outer–of all beings. Hopefully, CIMC and the Buddha’s teachings can contribute in a small way to the necessary changes that will facilitate social justice.

May we all cultivate wisdom and compassion and recognize the interdependence of all beings everywhere.
