The Meditation Center Public Art Installation
A historic building in East Hollywood is now home to the Dharma Punx. On the corner of
Melrose and Berendo, nestled among small restaurants, bakeries and shops, the Against The Stream Buddhist Meditation Society has opened a new Meditation Center. Noah Levine’s (author of Dharma Punx and Against The Stream) community based, non profit organization the Against The Stream Buddhist Meditation Society has come to one of the most ethnically diverse neighborhoods in the city. Dedicated to making the teachings of the Buddha available to all, theMeditation Center offers classes that do not require registration and forgo fees for a donate-as-you-can policy. Raw and airy, their new location opened to the pubic earlier this year. Keeping in tune with the organization’s mission, minimalist artist Miya Ando has been commissioned to help create a non-denominational environment.
