* * * Our Mission Statement * * *

The CCML is an umbrella group of Colorado Sanghas with representatives from each sangha. Our group is modeled on the Mindfulness Practice Center (Vermont). CCML is dedicated to the creation of a mindful culture fostering loving families, happy individuals, and a healthy planet. The practice of mindfulness, an innate human ability, has the power to bring about this transformation. We intend to promote mindfulness on all levels of society. These objectives are to be furthered through the establishment of mindfulness sanghas. Therefore, the function of the CCML is to create a secular vehicle sangha that would enable us to host Thich Nhat Hanh and his sangha, support Colorado sanghas, build mindfulness practice sanghas, bring in teachers, organize retreats, and represent a sounding board for the individual sanghas' requests, issues, and ideas. CCML does not dictate the practices and procedures of individual sanghas. We make decisions by consensus whenever possible and above all trust the wisdom of the sangha eyes.
