Group Information

We have a 35-40 minute meditation - guided or silent depending on the pulse of the group each week. We then have a Dhamma talk or reading and discussion. There is also time to share/discuss practice stuff or other desired topics. 

Hey sweet sangha,

Such an uplifting conversation about solidarity and our reflections on Margaret Killjoy's essay and the Dhamma. This week we will likely read an article about the origin of Buddhist Global Relief and Bhikkhu Bodhi's part in it, in preparation for the walk on the 15th, more information below. Or we may talk about something else entirely ;) Looking forward to seeing those of you who can make it tomorrow. Love and Solidarity

🙏🙏🙏

Potential reading for this week

If you have any questions, don't hesitate to contact me in response to this email

I created a form that people can use any time to offer feedback for the group, and propose topics if you don't feel like doing so during the group. That form is here. I will just leave it open for the foreseeable future.
