Date: Sunday, April 28, 2024
Teacher: William Ryken

In these times of chaos and suffering throughout the world, we need to remember the words of Trungpa Rinpoche, “The world needs you now." We can contemplate what this means for us in relationship to aggression, protection, and humor.

 

Date: Sunday, May 5, 2024
Teacher: Greg Smith

In the early 1970s I heard the word “enlightenment” and my life changed. What is enlightenment? Is it possible to aim our life’s trajectory toward it?

 

Date: Sunday, May 12, 2024
Teacher: Jeffrey Scott

Jeff Scott leads this month’s “Second Sunday” Maitri Bhavana, so we can practice for the wellbeing of others. Maitri Bhavana is a practice that is done for the benefit of the seriously ill, or for major global turmoil and disasters.

 

Date: Sunday, May 19, 2024
Teachers: Meli-Tashi Happy & Alley Smith

Join Meli-Tashi Happy and Chaplain Alley Smith in a conversation about relating with death and dying in fields of spiritual care. We will explore end-of-life care planning, coordination, bereavement, resilience, and sustainable compassion.
