SUMMARY:Daylong Retreat with Ayya Santacitta and Rev. Diane Wilde
DESCRIPTION:The Art & Science of Letting It Be\nA Daylong Retreat with Ayya Santacitta and Rev. Diane Wilde \nGrasping is not something done by the self\, but rather the self is something created by grasping. \n“What” are we letting be? What does it mean when we just let things be? Do we accept without concern the state of the world\, cruelty\, climate change\, misogyny\, racism\, etc? Perhaps we are more precise when we say “letting it be” means not adding onto the already cumbersome\, suffering self-identity that we carry around. \nToday’s daylong will address the issues that present themselves when we practice “letting it be”\, along with periods of meditation and mindful movement. \nPlease bring a vegetarian dish to share. Along with sharing with each other\, we will offer Ayya Santacitta her meal of the day. \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. \n \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. With our practice of dana\, we support our Sangha. \nSummary of Important Dates\n\n05/27/2018 – Registration opens.\n08/24/2018 – Registration via this website will close at 8:00 pm.\n08/25/2018 – Attend and enjoy the wonderful retreat.\n\nRegistration Details\nRegistration is $15.00 per person due before the start of the event.
