Come Sit this Week!
Hey All! I hope all is well. It was wonderful to see a few of you at the gathering on Saturday at our home, and we appreciate your presence!
We will be sitting tonight at the old Soul location in Santa Rosa. The address is 2801 Yulupa Avenue. PLEASE NOTE THIS IS NOT OUR USUAL LOCATION! We will be discussing an important aspect of the path, community. We hope to see you there!
Tomorrow we will sit as usual at 7:30pm at Riverfront Fitness. We're going to begin to discuss the Noble Truths, one of the most foundational teachings of the Buddha.
Finally, we have a daylong retreat coming up in June! This is a great opportunity to investigate meditation a little more deeply. The daylong will run from 9:30am to 3:30pm. We will have periods of meditation, talks, and discussion together. This daylong is designed to offer the basic Buddhist teachings about meditation in order to help you dive a little more deeply into your practice! You can get all the info at www.OneMindDharma.com/daylong.
A few random notes... First, we are working on getting a little dedicated website up for our groups, separate from One Mind Dharma. This is because One Mind Dharma is in fact a for-profit business, and it's our intention to run these groups eventually as a true non-profit. I will keep you all updated as the site gets launched!
Also, the One Mind Dharma app has been having problems as many of you know! It should be up and working again, and we are working on a few things. We are simplifying the app, adding in the option to register for meditations right in the app, and speeding it up. We appreciate your patience!
And on a final technological note, we created a group for our community on Insight Timer! I know a lot of you use the app, and I thought it would be great for us to have a little group on it. You can find it by searching "Insight Sonoma." Right now it's just me in the group, and I'd love to have some of you in there to share in practicing!
As always, if you have any questions, don't hesitate to email me at [email protected] or call or text me at (415) 858-5586.
Join us on Saturday, June 17th from 9:30am-3:30pm for a day of meditation practice investigating mindfulness, compassion, and more! All are welcome, regardless of prior meditation experience. We ask that you give the amount you are able to. If you want to join us, but cannot make a financial contrib...
