In collaboration with the “Friends of Nassau Recreation” in New York State, the Canada Bodhi Dharma Society offered a two-day Puti Meditation class on the 11th and 12th of August, 2007. The session was led by experienced Puti Meditation practitioner, and graduate of advanced Puti training, Francina Liu (Ph.D).

Removed from metropolitan hustle and stress, the historic Cedarmere Museum was selected as the ideal venue for this event. Also chosen for its cultural significance and beautiful rustic setting, this location encouraged students’ meditation practice, as it once encouraged its former owner, poetic writer and editor William Cullen Bryant.
