SUMMARY:Emptiness in Buddhist Practice—Online
DESCRIPTION:Emptiness in Buddhist Practice—Online\nAn 8-week course led by Shaila Catherine \nMondays Online via Zoom\nDecember 7\, 14\, 21\, January 4\, 11\, February 1\, 8\, 15\n4:30 – 6:00 PM Pacific Time \nTeachings on emptiness point directly to the liberating potential of the Buddhist path. Although this topic may sometimes seem obscure in the context of modern lay life\, it is worthy of deep reflection and study. The Buddha urged his disciples to apply their minds to understand the teachings on emptiness. The experience of emptiness is so central to his message in fact\, that on one occasion he warned that the dhamma will disappear from this world if people do not lend an ear to the teachings that “are deep\, deep in meaning\, supramundane\, dealing with emptiness.” \nThis course is structured as a discussion of the book authored by Guy Armstrong titled “Emptiness: A Practical Guide for Meditators.” Shaila Catherine will lead guided meditations and discussions to facilitate a profound contemplation of emptiness. Together we will explore a variety of meditation practices that illuminate the insubstantial void nature of experience and incline the mind toward a direct realization of emptiness. \n\nDecember 7 — The World is Empty of Self — Chapters 1 & 2\nDecember 14 — What is Real? — Chapters 3 & 4\nDecember 21 — How We Create A Sense of Self — Chapter 5\nJanuary 4 — Beyond Self — Chapters 6\, 7 & 8\nJanuary 11 — Karma: Who Acts? — Chapters 9 & 10\nFebruary 1 ­— The End of Karma\, Abiding in Emptiness\, Cessation\, Nibbana — Chapters 11\, 12 & 13\nFebruary 8 — All Phenomena are Empty — Chapters 14\, 15 & 16\nFebruary 15 — The Empty Nature of Awareness. Compassion — Chapters 17 – 21\n\nREQUIRED BOOK: Emptiness: A Practical Guide for Meditators\, by Guy Armstrong\, published by Wisdom Publications. Paperback: ISBN 9781614295266. E-book: ISBN 9781614293798 \nWHO SHOULD JOIN: This course is open to all practitioners\, however\, it is designed for those who have already had an introduction to mindfulness meditation practices. \nCOURSE LEVELS: It is designed as a level 2 course. Click this link for a key to course level designations. \nPRECAUTIONS FOR IN-PERSON MEETINGS: The in-person meetings will be limited to a maximum of 20 participants. We will meet in a large sanctuary that under normal circumstances would seat 250. Your temperature will be taken before entering\, face masks that cover the nose and mouth are required\, and social distancing will be practiced.

SUMMARY:Tuesday Online—Kim Allen—Speech from the Heart
DESCRIPTION:Tuesday Online—Kim Allen—Speech from the Heart\nan evening of meditation and teaching \nwith Kim Allen \nJanuary 19\, 2021 \nFrom where does speech originate? How does our speech feed back to affect our own heart (in addition to other people)? These are worthy investigations in Buddhist practice. Speech ties back to the three unwholesome roots of greed\, hatred\, and delusion\, as well as the three wholesome roots of non-greed\, non-hatred\, and non-delusion. Our choices in this realm have a major impact. At a time when the quality of public discourse is very low\, we can endeavor to speak in ways that are true\, unifying\, heartfelt\, and beneficial. \nPlease join us on Zoom. This event is appropriate for newcomers as well as experienced practitioners. The evening includes silent or guided meditation and teachings. \nTakes place on Zoom! \nJoin the Zoom Meeting\nWe now require you enter the Zoom passcode to join the meeting. \nhttps://us02web.zoom.us/j/88266320362 \nMeeting ID: 882 6632 0362\nPasscode: metta4all \nOne tap mobile\n+16699006833\,\,88266320362# US (San Jose)\n+12532158782\,\,88266320362# US (Tacoma) \nDial by your location\n+1 669 900 6833 US (San Jose)\n+1 253 215 8782 US (Tacoma)\n+1 346 248 7799 US (Houston)\n+1 929 205 6099 US (New York)\n+1 301 715 8592 US (Germantown)\n+1 312 626 6799 US (Chicago)\nMeeting ID: 882 6632 0362\nFind your local number: https://us02web.zoom.us/u/kcSiCSJ1bl \n\n  \nTEACHERS: Please visit our Teachers Page for biographies and photos of our speakers. \nTUESDAYS ONLINE: Due to coronavirus concerns\, we have converted our Tuesday evening meeting to an online format with teachings offered by Shaila Catherine and an array of guest teachers.
