April 25                  Equanimity             Rich Howard

Equanimity: Balanced, Spacious, and Engaged
It can be hard to maintain an open-hearted balance in a world where we have access to immense suffering in every corner of the globe. We may be closed down into paralysis or panic. And yet our practice calls us to engage the suffering, the world’s and our own,  with compassion. How can we withstand and even thrive as the “worldly winds” blow around us?  The quality of Equanimity can be the refuge we seek. We will explore Equanimity (upekkha in Pali) as one of the Paramis, as well as its place in the Brahmaviharas and the Seven Factors of Awakening.
