SUMMARY:Lama Adam Berner - On the Wings of Wisdom and Compassion
DESCRIPTION:Join us tonight at 6:30 PM PST for a teaching with Lama Adam Berner. \nMost of us begin meditation by learning to let go.  Through practices such as calm-abiding meditation\, we notice thoughts and concepts and then repeatedly train to let them go.  This is a partial path to the rich experience of awakening\, though\, as our daily lives continually demonstrate that\, in fact\, there are plenty of things we do need to pick up.  Discerning what is to be adopted and how to do so is\, in many ways\, the territory of Lojong\, or “mind training”\, which is best known for its hallmark practice of taking and sending (tong-len) and its list of 59 pithy slogans. \nThis series of interactive discussions will explore the Lojong teachings found in Jamgon Kongtrul Rinpoche’s Great Path of Awakening\, as expanded on by Chogyam Trungpa Rinpoche in his book Training the Mind and Cultivating Loving-Kindness.  With guided practice and lively discussion\, we’ll extend our understanding of the relationship between compassion and non-conceptuality\, and why they are considered to be like the two wings of a bird; both necessary for us to take flight. \nWe start our sessions with a 15-minute silent meditation at 6:15 PM PST. Please be mindful when entering at that time.

SUMMARY:Lama Kathy Wesley - The Joy of Living Book Study
DESCRIPTION:We are thrilled to invite you to our Joyful Wisdom Book Study with Lama Kathy Wesley tonight at 6:30 PM PST. \nLama Kathy Wesley will teach from Joyful Wisdom by Yongey Mingyur Rinpoche\, a book that directly addresses the timeless anxiety problem in our everyday lives. From the 2\,500-year-old perspective of Buddhism\, every chapter in human history could be described as an ‘age of anxiety.’ The anxiety we feel now has been part of the human condition for centuries. \nSo what do we do? Escape or succumb? Both routes inevitably lead to more complications and problems in our lives. “Buddhism\,” he says\, “offers a third option. We can look directly at the disturbing emotions and other problems we experience as stepping stones to freedom. Instead of rejecting or surrendering to them\, we can befriend them\, working through them to reach an enduring authentic experience of our inherent Wisdom\, confidence\, clarity\, and joy. \nWe start our sessions with a 15-minute silent meditation at 6:15 PM PST. Please be mindful when entering at that time.
