                                             Master Chunyi Lin

During this time-honored meditation, Master Lin invites people with more healing needs into the center of the room to receive special energy from him and from everyone present. The entire gathering is transformed into a virtual lotus flower, with layers of love and healing energy pulsing from the outside of the "flower" to its heart. You need not be in the center of this amazing meditation to feel its immediate benefits.
