Dear friend,
May this letter finds you peaceful and well. The Venerable's presence
in Magnolia Grove Monastery had been nourishing for the community.
Friends traveled from afar each night to listen to the teachings given
by the Venerable. The Venerable transmitted to us his insight, joy and
peace. We received much Dharma milk during the past seven days.
Many of our English speaking friends have been waiting to listen to a
live dharma talk in English given by senior dharma teachers in
Magnolia Grove. That day is almost here. There will be a day of
Mindfulness on Sunday December 12, 2010 at Magnolia Grove Monastery.
The good news we would like to share with you is Sister Dang Nghiem
will be giving Dharma talk in English. We would like to invite you to
join us, practicing together the art of mindful living on this lovely
day.
The schedule for the day is as followed:
5:00am- wake up
5:30- sitting meditation and touching the earth
7:00- breakfast
9:00- walking meditation
10:00- dharma talk
11:30- recitation of the Five Mindfulness Trainings
12:30pm- Formal lunch
Afternoon activity will be announced.
We look forward to seeing you this Sunday.
A lotus for you,
