Next Tuesday we will be bringing our wander down A Path With Heart to an end with the final three chapters.
We invite each of you who plan to be there next Tuesday, to bring in an insight and a question from the readings… you can certainly bring more… and it is more engaging if we all lead the discussion.
The schedule is:
6:00 – 6:30 sitting
6:30 – 7:15 discussion
7:15 – 7:30 sitting
The sitting takes place at BIBS.
Another third Tuesday comes around and we will be sitting, walking and sitting – the evening will be silent. No discussion is planned, so no reading.
The schedule is:
6:00 – 6:30 sitting
6:30 – 7:00 walking
7:00 – 7:30 sitting
We meet at BIBS – location in the sidebar.
Firstly, on Friday there is a full day of sitting and walking meditation from 9-4 at BIBS with the same format of alternating periods of sitting and walking meditation as our 3rd Tuesday fun. The day will include periods of guided meditation and opportunities for private practice discussions for those interested.
Secondly, next Tuesday we’ll be looking at an embodied aspect of practice, receptive awareness, which we can study via a talk, or three, by Andrea Fella. This is a practice that she learnt from Sayadaw U Tejaniya. The talks are:
Part of what we learn to do in practice is to steady our attention, to develop a simple, receptive awareness. We aren’t necessarily abandoning the world of ideas or even the idea of self. Instead, we learn to hold our lives, our ideas, and ourselves lightly. We rest in a spacious and compassionate sphere of awareness that knows but is not attached. In this way our response to life can arise from our direct experience rather than our abstract ideas and attachments. Gil Fronsdal
