Salida Insight Meditation Community

invites you to attend the

Lineage Ceremony for Denise Ackert

May 21, 2026, 1-2pm
Scout Hut
220 W Sackett, Salida

We warmly invite you to join us for a Lineage Ceremony recognizing, honoring, and celebrating Denise Ackert as a fully authorized lineage holder in the Tradition of the Theravadan Meditation Masters of Thailand, Burma, India, and many other countries. This meaningful milestone reflects not only her four years of dedicated teacher training, but also more than 30 years of committed practice and a deep fulfillment of extensive training requirements.

Denise is now authorized to teach at all levels and in a wide range of settings, and we look forward to celebrating this moment with our sangha and the wider community Denise has touched both here in Salida and beyond. Two of her mentors, Susie Harrington and Brian Lesage (via Zoom), will offer the ceremony.

We ask that you arrive at least 5 minutes early to ensure a timely start.

Light refreshments will be served so we are requesting this RSVP registration.
