Peterborough Town Library

Eben Jones Classroom

Free meditation class, now meeting twice a month on the second and fourth Wednesday. Each session offers a peaceful space to rest, relax, focus, and practice mindfulness.

Whether you’re new to meditation or have practiced before, this class offers a supportive environment to explore the benefits of meditation—reducing stress, enhancing focus, and promoting overall well-being. Come connect with others and find moments of peace in an increasingly stressful world.

The first class each month will include full instruction for newcomers (if needed), while the second class will focus on a quick review of meditation practices, questions, and meditation time.

Abhai Raj teaches the "Hong Sau" meditation technique taught by Paramhansa Yogananda. This practice quiets our mind so that we can become aware of, connect to, and realize our innate Divinity. The practice includes some light movement, pranayam (breathing exercises), and a silent mantra (hong sau). After explaining the technique, we'll meditate as a group for 20-30 minutes. Open to all ages and all levels of experience. Drop in any time!

Abhai Raj has been practicing and teaching meditation for 20+ years. He lives with his wife in Dublin.


This program is free and open to all. Please note that library parking is not guaranteed. Patrons who are able are encouraged to take advantage of Peterborough’s walkable downtown by parking in the Depot Square or Riverwalk lots.
