Monday, October 12, we will meet online.
Dear Friends,
This week, we will meet Monday evening, October 12, from 7-8:30PM ET online; Wednesday morning, October 14, from 7-8AM ET in person at our meditation space (3812 Northampton Street NW); and Friday, October 16, 12-1PM ET online.
On Monday, we will continue to explore the Interbeing of the Two Truths and the Three Times. Two weeks ago, our guest Melina Bondy introduced us to this teaching and shared how they are practicing with it in daily life. I felt moved, inspired, and also heartened. I felt profound changes in how I was experiencing the grief over my mother’s continuation. Since then, I’ve continued to experiment with this practice on issues that pop up in daily life, both big and small. This feels like a practical tool I’m adding to my toolbelt. Oh, how I depend on these practical tools!
I also feel curious. I’m keen to learn more, to practice more, and to hear about others’ experiences. Hence this week’s topic: a continuation of this teaching and sharing of our experiences.
After our meditation, we will watch Thich Nhat Hanh talk about the Interbeing of The Two Truths (of the historical and ultimate dimensions) and the Three Times (past, present, and future.) Then we will have time to share our experiences with this teaching or with other aspects of our practice.
With love and a bow,
Marie
