Meditation Practice and Dharma Talk
Clarifying Intention - Why Do I Meditate?
Thursday, Jan 26, on Zoom
by Kim Weeber
There are many reasons why people start meditating, but as practice unfolds, it is helpful to revisit our intentions.
Meditation is usually different than we thought it would be when we started. Perhaps it has revealed the foibles of the human mind. Perhaps we are getting insights into the nature of reality.
Do these revelations bring us into alignment with our original purpose? Do we need to revisit what we are doing and why we are doing it?
Our intentions are driving forces in meditation, and are important to be aware of.
Join us on Zoom for a meditation practice at 7:00 PM, followed by a dharma talk at 7:35.
There will be a short Q&A after the talk by Kim Weeber, founding teacher.
Suggested donation for evening is $8 – 20. Please donate according to your means.
Everyone is welcome to attend.
