Charles P. Scott Center for Spiritual and Religious Life

Prajna is a space open to everyone, including faculty, students, staff, and community members. You do not have to be spiritual or religious to come. People can feel free to drop in at anytime during the evening. Every meeting is a little different. We start grinding tea at 7:30. At 8, we typically sit in silence together, talk and drink hand-ground chai. No experience is necessary.
