Mission Statement
The Portland Insight Meditation Community is an experiment in American Buddhism. While we hold closely to the essential teachings of the Buddha, we are dedicated to evolving beyond the ritualism, sexism, hierarchy and other cultural artifacts that have characterized traditional religion. We welcome everyone: members of other faith traditions, male, female, gay, lesbian, bisexual, transgendered, single, partnered, all skin colors and ages. PIMC is based upon the Noble Eightfold Path of the Buddha. Its purpose is to improve the lives of participants, their families and the greater community through meditative practice and a lifestyle that supports liberation from suffering, the awakening of wisdom, and the manifestation of compassion.
About This Cause
PIMC offers instruction and support for those who wish to use Insight Meditation to improve their lives. In non Covid times there are meetings at the center daily, including classes, volunteer activities, a program for children and other social activities. Since the onset of the Coronavirus we have taken all our programs online and have events every day of the week.
