SUMMARY:(Remote) *Daylong Retreat with Ayya Santacitta Bhikkhuni and Rev. Diane Wilde
DESCRIPTION:An online\, One Day Retreat with Ayya Santacitta Bhikkhuni and Rev. Diane Wilde\nRetreat theme: What I have learned from my teachers\nLessons come from our cherished teachers as well as from lesser known beings throughout our lives. Paying attention and incorporating these teachings can change the trajectory of our lives from self-absorption towards more happiness and freedom. How do we do that? Which lessons are most pertinent to our own lives? \nAyya Santacitta — in her thirty years as Buddhist monastic — has benefited from some of the great teachers of our time\, in both Theravada and Vajrayana traditions. They include Ajahn Buddhadasa\, Ajahn Sumedho\, Shechen Rabjam Rinpoche\, Jetsunma Tenzin Palmo\, Bhikkhu Analayo and others. Diane Wilde has gained lessons from her years as an activist\, both for prison reform and the environment\, as well as a chaplain for many individuals as they died. Join us for a day of online teaching from a variety of perspectives ~ we look forward to practicing together. \nAYYA SANTACITTA was born in Austria and has a multifaceted background in hotel management\, ethnology and avant-garde dance theater. Her first teacher was Ajahn Buddhadasa\, who sparked her interest in Buddhist monastic life. She has practiced meditation for 30 years and trained as a nun in both the East and West since 1993\, primarily in the lineage of Ajahn Chah. Since 2002 she has also received teachings in the lineage of Dilgo Khyentse Rinpoche. Ayya Santacitta is co-founder of Aloka Vihara Forest Monastery\, where she has resided since 2009 and took Bhikkhuni Ordination in 2011. She is particularly interested in creating sanctuary close to nature\, practicing in community\, and bringing wisdom traditions to the environmental movement. \nDIANE WILDE has studied meditation in various traditions since 1990. In 2001 she was a founding member of Sacramento Insight Meditation. She founded Buddhist Pathways Prison Project (BP3) in 2010. Since 2003\, she has been a BP3 prison chaplain and aids in coordination of 75 volunteers who offer Buddhist services at numerous California prisons and jails. She is a graduate of Sati Center’s Buddhist Chaplaincy program and graduated from Spirit Rock Meditation Center’s Community Dharma Leadership Training Program. She is a board member of Sati Center for Buddhist Studies\, Sacramento Dharma Center\, Buddhist Pathways Prison Project and California Dept. of Corrections Volunteer Advisory Board. In 2015 she was lay-ordained as a Buddhist minister by her teacher Gil Fronsdal. \nSacramento Insight Meditation events are sustained by the generosity of instructors in offering teachings freely and on the generosity of students and members of the meditative community in the form of financial support\, service and participation in events.
