Our Story

My journey to founding the Edmonton Samarpan Meditation Centre began over a decade ago when I was a stressed executive juggling deadlines and responsibilities. I stumbled upon a local meditation workshop, and it completely transformed my perspective. What started as a way to cope turned into a passion for sharing those quiet moments of tranquility with others. Over the years, I trained with incredible mentors across various meditation traditions, each enriching my understanding and deepening my practice. This diversity of experience inspired me to create a space where individuals could gather, learn, and grow together. After much reflection, I decided to establish the Edmonton Samarpan Meditation Centre, driven by a commitment to make meditation accessible to everyone, regardless of their background. It’s not just about sitting quietly; it’s about fostering a supportive community where people can share their stories and experiences. I have seen firsthand how the practice can lead to personal transformations, and my greatest joy comes from witnessing the growth and connections formed within our community.
