Hello Friends of CPB!

Please remember that this Thursday, May 1, we will not have practice
at First Unitarian; the formal students and monastics of OPB will all
be meeting together at Furman University for our 1st Annual Conference
for Monastic Leaders (CML).

We will be presenting to Furman students and the general public at a
university sanctioned cultural life program, "Pragmatic Buddhism: The
Emergence of an American Buddhist Tradition." Additionally, three
formal students will be publicly ordained at Furman as Novice monks:
Wayne Hughes (Ren Cheng), William Perkins (Li Rui), and John Winter
(Li Que). Paul Trotti (Li Su) will be ordained this summer in St.
Louis, and those of you here in August will be able to attend and
witness the ceremony.

Also, I'm happy to announce that CPB will hold its first Summer
Meditation Workshop on Saturday, June 14. Location and times TBA.
You may register early for $15, or $20 at the door on day of event.
This workshop will cover all of the major types of meditation
techniques taught in OPB. A full session of zazen (mindfulness
meditation) will be held after the technique portion of the workshop.
Contact me via email to RSVP and receive your ticket now.

With palms together,

Jim Eubanks

Monastic Director
CPB & OPB

Hello to all,

Please come out and support CPB at our Summer Meditation Workshop.
Pragmatic Buddhism isn't only important on Thursday nights, it can
make your day-to-day living experience more satisfactory. Be mindful,
be aware, be there.

I bow with respect,
Wayne
