Online Weekly Metta Meditation with Ian Challis and Friends
2026-05-15 16:30 - 17:15 (America/Los_Angeles) | Online Zoom Meeting
When the Buddha’s followers felt anxious and afraid, he taught them the practice of metta or lovingkindness meditation. Metta is a form of practice that helps us touch deeply into our own hearts, uncover the energies of kindness and compassion, and share these energies for the benefit of all beings.
If you would like to explore this powerful practice, please join Ian Challis and friends online. These 45-minute meetings will be practice-focused, with most of the time spent in meditation. If you are new to the practice, great! We will learn by doing. After practice, there will be time for questions and sharing.
Cost: Donation basis; there is no charge to participate. Our center and teachers are supported by your generosity. Please give from your ability and heart at desertinsight.org

Meditation and Dharma Talk with Mary Stancavage—The Five Precepts: Theft—IN-PERSON & ONLINE
2026-05-17 10:30 - 12:00 | Mizell Center, 480 S. Sunrise Way, Palm Springs, CA, 92262, United States
The Five Precepts and Beyond – The 2nd Precept – What is Not Given
We continue our series on the Five Precepts begun Sunday, May 10, with the Second Precept which addresses theft, or taking what is not given. The precepts are the Buddha’s invitation to a way of living that supports our own peace, in an offering of care and safety to our world.The precepts can sound like a list of rules — don’t harm, don’t take what isn’t given, don’t lie, be wise in our sexuality, don’t cloud the mind with intoxicants. Yet, the precepts aren’t rules, they’re alive, intentional trainings (and no one is keeping score). Taken together they are the practice of sila (living in integrity), and the foundation of the entire path. Over six weeks we will focus on each precept in turn as practices we can live into. Come if you’re new. Come if you’ve been practicing for years. We’ll sit together, listen together, and explore these ancient invitations to lead a more harmonious life.
The Sunday Meditation and Dharma Talk will be held from 10:30 a.m. until noon **In-Person at the Mizell Center** and simultaneously live *Online via Zoom*. Everyone is welcome.
There will be time for meditation, a dharma (teaching) talk by one of our regular or guest teachers, and time for your comments and questions.

The Five Precepts and Beyond – The Further Precepts
On Sunday, May 10, we begin a series on the Five Precepts. The precepts are the Buddha’s invitation to a way of living that supports our own peace, and is an offering of care and safety to our world.The precepts can sound like a list of rules — don’t harm, don’t take what isn’t given, don’t lie, be wise in our sexuality, don’t cloud the mind with intoxicants. Yet, the precepts aren’t rules, they’re alive, intentional trainings (and no one is keeping score). Taken together they are the practice of sila (living in integrity), and the foundation of the entire path. Over six weeks we will focus on each precept in turn as practices we can live into. Come if you’re new. Come if you’ve been practicing for years. We’ll sit together, listen together, and explore these ancient invitations to lead a more harmonious life.
The Sunday Meditation and Dharma Talk will be held from 10:30 a.m. until noon **In-Person at the Mizell Center** and simultaneously live *Online via Zoom*. Everyone is welcome.
There will be time for meditation, a dharma (teaching) talk by one of our regular or guest teachers, and time for your comments and questions.

Please join us as we practice together in community and take a few hours to experience the gift of quiet practice. With our busy lives and the stress of each day, we sometimes let our practice slip away, yet it is so important to maintain, especially right now.
Our morning will be an opportunity to let go and get back to cultivating present-time awareness, and rest in being. There will be sitting and walking meditation, dharma, and conversation. Suitable for everyone.
Location: Mizell Center, 480 S. Sunrise Way, Palm Springs, CA 92262
Reg Fee: $45 covers the cost of the day and support to ICD. Sliding scale–No one is turned away for lack of funds.
