The practice and refuge of the Buddha’s Divine AbidingsJoin us beginning Sunday, June 2, as we explore the Brahmaviharas, four powerful aspects of the awakening heart. The Buddha offers us a strong framework for the journey from fear and confusion to “a heart as wide as the world.” The locations he offered for us to explore are: Mettā (lovingkindness); Karuņā (compassion); Muditā (appreciative joy); and Upekkhā (equanimity). Boundless love and caring are the medicines we need as individuals and communities to face the realities and struggles of being human. Please join us for this timely exploration.
This Sunday Meditation and Dharma Talk will be held live **Online via Zoom ONLY** from 4:30 p.m. until 6 p.m. Everyone is welcome.
