Program Description:
You may attend just one class, or the entire series. (This week’s class has been added on to the original series to make up for power outage obstacles on 28 Jan. We are deeply grateful to Ven Steve for adding this class!)
This innovative weekly group practice session* is a precious opportunity to benefit from Ven Steve’s decades of experience as a Tibetan Buddhist monastic and to bask in recent inspiration he has derived from classes with His Holiness the Dalai Lama 🌞🌞🌞.
All levels of practitioner, from complete beginner up, are welcome to join. Each week we will start with meditation upon the breath and then settle down into a state of being that is at home with the pure nature of mind. Then we will loosen up the sense of self, engaging in a way of meditating on emptiness that is not overly technical. Then, on top of this, we will meditate on Bodhichitta … This is the warm heart associated with the natural human quality of kindness that His Holiness refers to so often when he is teaching, and also personally embodies so unstintingly.
* Please note this is an experiential practice, not a guided meditation.
