Meditation and Dharma Talk with Ian Challis (Hybrid)
This hybrid Sunday Meditation and Dharma Talk will be held simultaneously in-person and live online from 4:30 p.m. until 6 p.m.
Beginning on May 15th, continuing on May 22nd, and concluding on May 29th, the Sunday topics will be The Three Jewels of Buddha, Dharma and Sangha.
Buddha (awakened one), Dharma (teachings), and Sangha (community), are the three jewels that support our awakened life, together forming a refuge of living practice. How do we manifest these ancient teachings with ever more meaningful expression?
Our practice of meditation cultivates the realization of awakening. In the midst of everyday activity, supported by our connections, we can take refuge in the three jewels of shining practice, refining our ability to face the challenges of this precious life.
There will be time for meditation, a dharma (teaching) talk by a teacher from our Guiding Council, and time for your comments and questions.
Insight Community of the Desert will once again be able to experience the gifts of sangha through in-person practice and teaching. Upcoming in-person events will be held at Unitarian Universalist Church of the Desert in Rancho Mirage. We will meet every Sunday at our previous time slot of 4:30 p.m. We will meet both online and in person. Join us whichever way you feel most comfortable. Everyone is welcome.
