SUMMARY:(Hybrid) Sit & Dharma Talk - Dennis Warren - On Thought and Thinking
DESCRIPTION:Insight Meditation and Dharma Talk with SIM Founding Teacher Dennis Warren\n\n\n\nFor biographical details of the teacher Dennis Warren\, click here. \n\n\n\n\n\nThe teacher will present in-person at the Dharma Center. Hybrid events can be attended via Zoom or onsite at the Sacramento Dharma Center.\n\n\n\n\n \n\n\n\n\nOn Thought and ThinkingMany practitioners relate to thought and thinking as obstacles to meditation and daily life practice. This evening\, in contrast\, will explore the Historical Buddha’s teachings that thought and thinking can be functions of wisdom. \n\n\n\nThe Buddha’s vision emphasizes the qualities of intention and discernment in thinking as guides for creating\, and testing\, a sound conceptual framework for practice. This approach includes mindful and intuitive reflection on the results or outcomes of one’s efforts. Thinking and thought can become powerful tools for developing clarity\, deepening insight\, and supporting ethical conduct. \n\n\n\nThe subject matter of this evening will be appropriate for all stages of practice. You can attend in person or by ZOOM. Dennis will be presenting in person and encourages you to be there in person as well. \n\n\n\nOffer a Teacher Donation\n\n\n\nDennis Warren will receive at least 75% of your donation. \n\n\n\nUse the following donate button and select Talk – Jun 19 Dennis from the dropdown list. \n\n\n\n\nDONATE – Thu Talk\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nHow to Attend Remotely\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nJoin online meeting: https://zoom.us/join or join by phone at 1-669-900-6833( Meeting ID: 824 3438 6704 and Passcode: 244812)For tips and instructions to join the meeting\, click here to check this news blog.

SUMMARY:(Hybrid) Sit & Dharma Talk - Rich Howard - Listening to the Cries of the World
DESCRIPTION:Insight Meditation and Dharma Talk with SIM Teacher Rich Howard\n\n\n\nFor biographical details of the teacher Rich Howard\, click here. \n\n\n\n\n* The teacher will present in-person at the Dharma Center.Hybrid events can be attended via Zoom or onsite at the Sacramento Dharma Center. \n\n\n\n\nListening to the Cries of the WorldIt seems that the volume has been turned up in so many areas of modern life: political rhetoric\, forceful opinions\, horrific wars\, ….  Listening to an inner voice becomes harder\, and listening to others nearly impossible. Yet sustaining and developing our practice of mindful awareness requires listening to our heart’s subtle whispers\, and applying that practice in the world requires listening to the cries of the world to find where compassion is needed most. In addition\, our relationships require a deep listening to spoken and silent expressions of connection. We will explore the inner and outer practices of listening and look for applications in our meditation practice and our daily life. \n\n\n\nOffer a Teacher Donation\n\n\n\nRich Howard will receive at least 75% of your donation. \n\n\n\nUse the following donate button and select Talk – Jun 26 Rich from the dropdown list. \n\n\n\n\nDONATE – Thu Talk\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nHow to Attend Remotely\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nJoin online meeting: https://zoom.us/join or join by phone at 1-669-900-6833( Meeting ID: 824 3438 6704 and Passcode: 244812)For tips and instructions to join the meeting\, click here to check this news blog.
