As 2026 begins to unfold, we are excited to begin a new year of Open Meditative Dialogues with a talk from long-time member and friend of Springwater Center, Michael Drumm.
Mr. Drumm studied Biology, Psychology, Sociology and Philosophy in college, and then attended Law School at the University of Buffalo. He has been a practicing attorney in Buffalo for over 40 years. He has engaged in various forms of meditative inquiry for over 50 years, has been a member of the Buffalo Zen Dharma Community (an affiliate of Zen Mountain Monastery) for 20 years, and a Springwater Center member for the last 10 years.
The schedule is as follows:
January 10th Schedule (Times given are Eastern Standard Time)
1:30 – 1:55 pm – Timed Sitting

Speaking and dialoguing at Springwater Center is different from a lecture or a discussion group where we share what we already know. The spirit of meditative inquiry infuses talks and dialogues with a sense of exploration and discovery, of being open to the freshness of not knowing. Join the program online and experience this for yourself.
