Being Peace Evening

This half-day online gathering brings together teachers from the Sati Center’s Buddhist Chaplaincy Training and Buddhist Eco-Chaplaincy programs. Designed for anyone curious about chaplaincy rooted in Buddhist values, the event offers an opportunity to explore the rich intersections between ecological and interpersonal forms of spiritual care.

On this hybrid Dharma Sunday with Lama Liz, we will continue exploring what it means to cultivate our innate capacity to relax into beingness with the energies of the phenomenal world. Hybrid event.

Typical Zen retreats are designed for intense and deep meditation experiences and include zazen (seated meditation), kinhin (group walking meditation), deep abdominal chanting, a talk at the interface of Zen and Ecodharma teachings, rest periods, samu (silent work periods) and dokusan (private interview with the teacher). To minimize spiritual bypassing, we also add council (sharing circles which include expressions of grief, fear, confusion and anger) and/or heart-centric songs everyday. (Hybrid)
