SUMMARY:(Hybrid) Sit & Dharma Talk - Diane Wilde - Moral Injury

This could be stated by every generation and each new epoch in our human and natural history. But the rapidity of cultural\, political and environmental changes that are now taking place is unprecedented. Additionally\, we now have “alternate” views of reality or what is “truth” — leading to confusion and anxiety. The individual\, society and the earth herself are suffering from the abandonment of core values by individuals and members of society. The mental health world has a term for the psychological distress (dukkha)\, that takes place when our values are violated and/or discarded. It is called “Moral Injury”. How can Buddhist teachings and our practice help us right now in dealing with “Moral Injury?” Not an easy topic\, but one that needs our attention. \n\n\n\nOffer a Teacher Donation\n\n\n\nDiane Wilde will receive at least 75% of your donation. \n\n\n\nUse the following donate button and select Talk – Apr 17 Diane 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.

It is the center piece around which all elements of practice revolve.The talk and discussion this evening will focus on this important principle and the role it plays in meditation\, daily life\, and relationships.The 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 – Mar 27 Dennis from the dropdown list. \n\n\n\n\nDONATE – Thu Talk\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: 821 5948 5895 and Passcode: 927093)For tips and instructions to join the meeting\, click here to check this news blog.

SUMMARY:(Hybrid) Sit & Dharma Talk - Diane Wilde - The Art of Being Wrong
DESCRIPTION:For biographical details of the teacher Diane Wilde\, 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\nBe honest.  How well do you accept criticism or an admonishment?  What is your response when an action you have taken\, or a view you hold is challenged by another?  or corrected? Have you ever investigated your physical and mental response when you have been in this situation?  \n\n\n\nAccording to Buddhist philosophy\, a critique of an action or belief which is contrary to your own could be of strategic benefit to you… if you are able to hear it. One of the Buddha’s most well-known senior monks\, Mahamoggallana\, offered guidance on this subject — enumerating the qualities of someone who can and cannot be admonished. Equally important\, how do we effectively offer another person a differing —and often challenging — point of view or advice. Will we endanger our relationship? Mahamoggallana’s reflections are as relevant today as they were 2\,600 years ago. \n\n\n\nOffer a Teacher Donation\n\n\n\nDiane Wilde will receive at least 75% of your donation. \n\n\n\nUse the following donate button and select the Thursday date Thu Feb 6 – Diane 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: 821 5948 5895 and Passcode: 927093)For tips and instructions to join the meeting\, click here to check this news blog.
