SUMMARY:Sit & Dharma talk with SIM Community Mentor\, Diane Wilde
DESCRIPTION:Thursday\, July 21\, 7-9 pm. Sitting and Dharma Discussion with Diane Wilde\, SIM Community Mentor\, “The Four Types of People” \nHave you ever wondered why there are people who\,  though born in poverty and deprivation\, yet managed to evolve as wise and compassionate people\, seemingly content with very little\,  while others\,  born with privilege and wealth\, seem to require more and more “stuff” and often succumb to cruel behavior towards themselves and others. The Buddha had something to say about these “four types of people” in the Tamonata Sutta: \n“There are these four types of people to be found existing in the world. Which four? One in darkness who is headed for darkness\, one in darkness who is headed for light\, one in light who is headed for darkness\, and one in light who is headed for light.” The Buddha did not speak in riddles. His teaching is clear and well-explained. Whenever he said something that people might not understand properly\, he explained it immediately. What is darkness? What is brightness? How does one keep on running from one to the other?
