SUMMARY:Sit & Dharma Talk with SIM Founding Teacher\, Dennis Warren
DESCRIPTION:“WHAT IS THE BENEFIT OF LIVING THE CONTEMPLATIVE LIFE?” – with SIM FOUNDING TEACHER DENNIS WARREN  – THURSDAY\, May 26\, 2016 – 7:00-9:15 PM    \n“What is the benefit of living the contemplative life?” \nThis is the question put to the historical Buddha by King Ajatasattu. The dialogue that continues is one of the most comprehensive and eloquent presentation of the Buddha regarding his teachings; a comparison of his teaching to the other major spiritual and philosophical theories of the time; the original Sangha’s code of ethics; the Buddha’s own lifestyle\, and more. \nThe Samannaphala Sutta is consider one of the most useful and helpful discourses of the Buddha. The question “What is the benefit of living the contemplative life?” is as relevant to all of us today as it was in the time of King Ajatasattu. Ajatasattu was a layman who become a devoted follower of the Buddha after this encounter and sponsored the First Buddhist Council. \nThe evening will explore the specifics of this sutta and how they have direct application to our practice and daily life today in an urban setting. This will be the first in a series of two or three talks Dennis will give based on this sutta. \nDennis believes that the key question in this sutta\, and the Buddha’s answers\, are particularly timely because of our move to a new and permanent home in the coming months in the Sacramento Dharma Center. Dennis will discuss this and the one day retreat he will lead this coming Saturday\, May 28\, exploring the present and future SIM and the move to our new home. \nThis event will begin at 700 pm at Sacramento Friends Meetinghouse\, 890 57th Street.

SUMMARY:Day-long Retreat "Mobilizing Our Resources" with SIM Founding Teacher\, Dennis Warren
DESCRIPTION:Saturday\, May 28\, 2016 – 8:30-4:30 pm. One Day Retreat. MOVING TO THE NEW DHARMA CENTER  – REFLECTING ON WHO WE ARE\,  WHO WE CAN BE\, AND NEW DHARMA RELATIONSHIPS – with SIM FOUNDING TEACHER DENNIS WARREN \nThis one day will explore our move to the new Sacramento Dharma Center in the coming months. It will be a combination retreat\, reflection and workshop for anyone interested in SIM’s future; and learning about and being involved in preparing for the move to a new Dharma Center. \nIt is important to recognize that preparation for the move involves both our community as a whole\, and each of us individually. This move represents a significant transition for SIM’s 14 year history and for each of us as individual practitioners. \nWhat are the challenges – for our community and each of us personally –  in moving to a new Dharma Center? What are  the opportunities? How will SIM maintain its unique identity when living so closely with two other Buddhist communities? How can SIM members contribute to making this move and transition in SIM’s history a smooth one? \nPre-registration is required\, although there is no cost to attend. Register by sending an email to Dennis\, dwwotp@gmail.com \, indicating your intention to attend. You’ll receive a confirmation and a number of issues to reflect upon prior to the 28th. \nThe day will begin at 8:30 am and end at 4:30 pm at the Friends Meetinghouse at 890 57th Street. Bring your own lunch and plan on staying on-site during the lunch hour
