Course: The Development of Happiness
2019-05-23 19:15 - 21:00, 2019-05-30 19:15 - 21:00 | Westhope Presbyterian Church, 12850 Saratoga Ave, Saratoga, CA, 95070, United States
A six-week course led by Kim Allen
A practical approach to training in happiness.
April 25 – May 30, 2019
7:15 pm to 9:00 pm
Silence begins at 7:00.
Arrive early (around 7:00) to enjoy the optional pre-class meditation period.
The Buddhist path can be viewed as the cultivation of deeper and deeper forms of happiness. When suffering is progressively removed from experience, the mind naturally realizes greater ease, joy, happiness, and peace; they are two sides of the same coin. A great depth of happiness is available to the trained mind. This six-week course will explore several levels of happiness through teachings (including sutta readings), meditation instruction, reflections, and small-group discussion. We will nurture practical skills that bolster positive states of mind, and learn to recognize, appreciate, and extend the experience of happiness.

April 25—Happiness and the Three Trainings with Kim Allen
May 2—The Happiness of Ordinary Pleasures with Kim Allen
May 9—The Happiness of Benefit and Service with Kim Allen
May 16—The Happiness of a Calm and Focused Mind with Kim Allen
May 23—The Happiness of Wisdom and Insight with Kim Allen
May 30 —The Happiness of Liberation and Living in Peace with Kim Allen

WHO SHOULD JOIN: This course is open to all practitioners.
COURSE LEVELS: It is designed as a level 2-3 course. Click this link for a key to course level designations.

Visit our Teacher Page for teacher biographies and photographs.
REGISTRATION: Registration is required for this course. Registration fees are non-refundable. To register, select an option under the Ticketsheading at the bottom of this page. (If you are viewing this page more than two months in advance of the course, the Tickets heading might not yet appear, so please check again later.) To register for a course, you purchase one ticket, which registers you for the entire class series. You only need to register once; you do not need to register separately for each class session.
Course Fee: The sliding scale fee range is from $360 to $90 and will be shared between IMSB and the teacher(s). The lower end of the sliding scale is intended for those with limited financial means. The low rate of $90 is estimated to cover the most basic costs such as rent and insurance for the specific class period. This base rate does not factor in compensation for teachers or ongoing administrative expenses for IMSB. If you pay at the mid to high range of the sliding scale, your generosity supports those with limited income in attending our programs and also supports IMSB and the teachers, enabling the dhamma to thrive in the South Bay area. We encourage you to choose the highest level that is appropriate for your economic situation.
Scholarship Assistance: A scholarship rate of $45 is offered for those with very limited financial means. If you need additional assistance, or if you would like to volunteer to help out, please inquire with the registrar by contacting ThursdayClass.
Tax Deductions: The basic registration fee is not tax deductible. Donations above the base rate will be considered voluntary contributions and are deductible for any amount that is over the base rate. Each January, the IMSB treasurer sends donors letters that acknowledge the amount given for the previous year that is above the basic rate; this serves as documentation for tax deduction purposes.
Cancellation Policy: All fees and payments are non-refundable. If it becomes necessary to cancel participation in a course, and the registrar is notified prior to the start of the first class meeting, your registration fee will be converted into a voucher creditable towards the fee for a future IMSB Thursday class. Vouchers must be used within one year of the initial course start date, and may be transferred to only one future course. Cancellations that occur after the start of the first class are not eligible for the voucher credit.

Monthly Day of Meditation with Shaila Catherine
2019-05-25 09:30 - 17:00 | Foothills Congregational Church – Fellowship Hall, 461 Orange Ave, Los Altos, CA, 94022, United States
A day of meditation with Shaila Catherine.
IMSB offers a day of meditation one Saturday each month. These monthly day long programs offer a consistent and easy opportunity for meditators to maintain a steady commitment to meditation, deepen their practice, explore various dhamma themes, and cultivate relationships with the community—and still be home in time for dinner!
The day long programs are usually structured with alternating sitting and walking meditations, augmented by meditation instructions, reflections, and teachings. Shaila Catherine leads most of the day longs, complimented by periodic guest teachers or community events. At most day long events, Shaila is available for individual consultations.
Shaila offers teachings at each event, usually aimed at developing meditative skills. Whether or not a theme is announced in advance, teachings will be offered to deepen understanding of the Buddhist path of practice.
There will be a pot-luck community meal around 12:30; please bring a food dish to share.
Everyone is welcome. There is no registration. Folding chairs are provided. Bring a mat and cushion if you prefer to sit on the floor. Beginner’s to meditation are encouraged to come on time since both sitting and walking meditation instruction are usually offered in the mornings.
These monthly events may take place at any of the churches where we meet—in Los Altos, Saratoga, or Mountain View. Be sure to double check the website event listing to determine the correct location.
IMSB relies upon the generosity of participants to support our teachers and cover organizational expenses. Dana is a word in the ancient Pali language that describes donations, offerings and generosity. Two bowls will be available at an event to practice dana for the teacher and IMSB; we encourage you to give joyfully and generously, according to your resources and means. IMSB is a 501(c) (3) organization. All donations are tax deductible as permitted by law.

Breathe with Joy
2019-05-28 19:30 - 21:00, 2019-06-04 19:30 - 21:00 | St. Timothy’s Episcopal Church, Edwards Hall, 2094 Grant Road , Mountain View , CA, 94040, United States
Breathe with Joy
A 6-week series on mindfulness with breathing led by Shaila Catherine
Tuesdays, March 19 – June 4, 2019
7:30 pm to 9:00 pm
The Buddha described mindfulness with breathing as a practice of joy. His instructions to his disciples on this practice were preserved in the Anapanasati Sutta—a discourse that presents sixteen practical instructions that together map a comprehensive, liberating, and joyful approach to mindfulness.
Although this systematic structure is clearly described in the ancient texts, divergent interpretations have developed regarding how to put the instructions into practice. In this series, Shaila Catherine will offer her own interpretations of the 16-step sequence and provide snapshots of perspectives promoted by other widely respected dharma teachers. This in-depth reflection on the Anapanasati Sutta will show how meditation on breathing can deepen both concentration and insight, and lead to awakening.

March 19 – Ever Mindful
March 26 – Breath and Body
April 23 – Breath and Feeling
April 30 – Breath and Mind
May 28 – Breath and Insight
June 4 – Breath, Mindfulness, and the Factors of Awakening

Note: Series dates are not consecutive. They are interspersed with guest speaker events. Visit our Event Calendar for details.
Everyone is welcome—newcomers as well as experienced practitioners. Each evening includes silent or guided meditation, a break, and teachings.

Please visit our Teachers Page for biographies and photos of our speakers.

Week-long retreat in Calgary, Canada
2019-06-17 - 2019-06-23 | FCJ Retreat and Conference Center in Canada, 219 - 19th Avenue SW, Calgary, AB, T2S 0C8, Canada
Strategies for Overcoming Distracting Thoughts
A week-long mindfulness meditation retreat in Calgary, Canada
with Shaila Catherine
Monday, June 17 – Sunday, June 23, 2019
The retreat begins with registration at 3:00 pm on Monday, June 17, and ends at 11:00 on Sunday, June 23.
Mental restlessness is an insidious and pervasive hindrance that all practitioners struggle to overcome. We can refine our skills for working with the modes of thinking that distract us from being mindful and concentrated: critical thoughts, planning, worrying, lustful thoughts, judging, memories, internal commentaries, to name a few. The teachings on this retreat will present a sequence of strategies for dealing with obstructive mental patterns; these progressive instructions are found in two discourses in the Middle Length Discourses, (suttas 19 and 20). Practitioners will be encouraged to develop a mindfulness-based meditation practice, while exploring these strategies for overcoming distractions.
This retreat is suitable for both new and experienced practitioners. It will be held at the beautiful FCJ Retreat and Conference facility — a quiet oasis of peace on the banks of the Elbow River and adjacent to a natural riverside park. The residential rooms are comfortable and have been recently updated. Calgary in Alberta is a city of 1.2 million and is serviced by an international airport (YYC). It is 65 miles from Banff National Park in the Canadian Rockies which is an ideal vacation destination for the days before or after our retreat.
Preparation: Please read the following two discourses prior to the retreat. You may wish to bring a print out to the retreat for your personal reference.

Course: Working Skillfully with Anger
2019-06-20 19:15 - 21:00 | Westhope Presbyterian Church, 12850 Saratoga Ave, Saratoga, CA, 95070, United States
A 6-week workshop on letting go
Led by Sharon Allen and Shaila Catherine
Thursdays, June 20 – August 8, 2019
7:15 pm to 9:00 pm
Silence begins at 7:00
Arrive early (around 7:00) to enjoy the optional pre-class meditation period.
Anger is a powerful emotion. When unchecked and unexamined, anger has enormous potential to harm relationships and lead to deep personal suffering. This six-week course will show you how, instead of hating yourself for getting angry, you have the potential to observe the emotion, understand how it functions, learn to let it go, and watch it lead to forgiveness.
The course is based on teachings presented in the anthology All The Rage. This anthology includes short inspiring essays from thirty contemporary Dharma teachers who practice Theravada, Zen, or Tibetan styles of Buddhism. They share their reflections and struggles to face their anger, and learn to live at peace while fully engaged in this complex modern world.
Required Reading: All The Rage: Buddhist Wisdom on Anger and Acceptance. A comprehensive Buddhist anthology edited by Andrea Miller (2014)
WHO SHOULD JOIN: This course is open to all practitioners.
