SUMMARY:*Sit & Dharma Discussion with SIM Community Mentor\, Diane Wilde
DESCRIPTION:What about God???\nIt seems appropriate to discuss god and its compatibility — or not — with the holiest seasons in the Judeo-Christian calendar approaching in April.  In the West\, there is a widespread assumption that you can’t be a Buddhist and believe in a supreme being.\nAt prison\, inmates — especially people who are new to the practice —frequently ask about Buddhism and its teachings on god.  Underlying this question is a concern about being cajoled to “convert to Buddhism.”  (As I have stated numerous times to inmates\, the only conversion is the desire to investigate your own mind.) At SIM as well\, practitioners often embrace the Buddha’s path and simultaneously maintain a strong allegiance to a belief system which defines “God” as the supreme being.  Tonight we will discuss the “gods” that were an important component of the Buddha’s culture\, as well as the Buddha’s teachings on god. For many westerners\, reconciling a belief in god while following the Buddha’s path of alleviating suffering can cause confusion. For others there is no problem at all\, with a comfortable marrying of both.\nShould make for a lively discussion!

SUMMARY:*Sit & Dharma Talk with SIM Founding Teacher Dennis Warren
DESCRIPTION:Forgetting  and Remembering\nThe original definition of Mindfulness contains the element of “remembering.” What does this mean? And why is it important? What are we “forgetting?”  What are we trying to “remember?” Does it mean remembering to engage in “moment-to-moment non-judgmental awareness”?  As difficult as it is to maintain such a state of mind\, is that it? Is that all? Or is there more? Or is there much more?\nUnderstanding these questions\, and their answers\, in the context of the historical Buddha’s teachings\, is important to practicing well and developing a progressively maturing practice. Reflect on these questions and come prepared with your questions to supplement the talk and discussion. \nSitting and Dharma Talk\, with Dennis Warren\, SIM Founding Teacher

SUMMARY:*Sit & Dharma Talk with SIM Community Mentor\, Diane Wilde
DESCRIPTION:“What About God?”  Part 2     –     Sit & Dharma Talk with Diane Wilde \n“What About God” Part 1 addressed the Buddha’s perspective concerning god\, which of course was strongly influenced by his own cultural imperatives.  Tonight we’ll begin the evening with a brief overview of how various contemporary teachers address this topic both personally and in their sanghas.  The remainder of the evening will be a community discussion on the topic.  Some of us incorporate “god” into our practice due to cultural mores or personal spiritual values. Others experience a sense of relief practicing a path which is non-theistic.  Please come and share your own perspective!  Should be an interesting discussion.

SUMMARY:*Sit & Dharma Talk with SIM Community Mentor\, Rich Howard
DESCRIPTION:Engaged and Aware: Finding a Balance\nSit & Dharma Talk with SIM Community Mentor\, Rich Howard. \nFor many of us\, commitment to justice and ethics leads us to engage in action in the real world. But our practice of meditative awareness calls us to “be” not just “do.” Are these impulses opposed to each other? Or are they mutually supportive? How can we sustain our engagement and connect our mindfulness to the suffering all around (and within!) us? Let’s explore the implications of bringing our practice into every day life. This evening will serve as a good preparation for SIM’s Earth Day Daylong Retreat on Saturday April 22.

SUMMARY:*Sit & Dharma Talk with Community Dharma Leader\, Bruce Pardoe
DESCRIPTION:The Practice of Stop\, Drop\, & Ask – with Community Dharma Leader Bruce Pardoe \nCommunity Dharma Leader Bruce Pardoe will be with us this Thursday evening. He will talk on the practice of Stop\, Drop and Ask. He will also lead a reflection on how wisdom and love are one.\nBruce has practiced Vipassana meditation for the past ten years including numerous 1\, 2 & 3 month retreats at Insight Meditation Society and Spirit Rock. He has been on pilgrimage and practiced in Asia\, and sat numerous extended solo retreats. All combined he has spent more than one and a half years in silence. He is a graduate of the Spirit Rock Dharma Leaders Program.\nBruce expresses his wonder for awakening and dharma in direct\, joyous and experiential teachings.

SUMMARY:*Sit & Dharma Talk with SIM Community Mentor\, Diane Wilde
DESCRIPTION:Some of the earliest teachings in the Pali Canon may surprise you! \nSIM Community Mentor Diane Wilde has undertaken three “study/meditation” retreats with Venerable Analayo\, one of the premier scholars of the early Pali Canon.  Bhikkhu Analayo researches the earliest teachings and determines their authenticity by comparing them to the Chinese āgamas (brought to China 300 years after the Buddha’s death)\, as well as portions which have survived in Tibetan translation and in Sanskrit. The āgamas’ existence and similarity to the Sutta Pitaka are sometimes used by scholars to assess to what degree these teachings are an historically authentic representation of the Canon of Early Buddhism. Sometimes the differences between them are used to suggest an alternative to the accepted meaning of a sutta in either of the two recensions.  Bhikkhu Analayo is the first Westerner to translate many of these texts from the ancient Chinese. \nAt the Analayo retreat — held in April 2017 at Insight Retreat Center for teachers and senior practitioners —a wealth of information was offered. Topics included (but were definitely not limited to!) the early teachings on forgiveness\, conceptual thinking\, sickness and death (research derived from his new book\, “Mindfully Facing Disease and Death”) and many other relevant topics for today’s practitioner. Community Mentor Diane Wilde will share what she learned at the retreat and the practical application of these teachings in everyday life.

SUMMARY:*Sit & Dharma Talk with SIM Community Mentor\, Rich Howard
DESCRIPTION:Generosity Builds Community \nEach of us has benefitted from acts of generosity from others – from our parents to our teachers to friends and strangers. Whether recognized or not\, these acts of generosity have allowed us to be who we are today. Similarly\, a community grows by accumulated acts of generosity\, often unseen or unappreciated. We will take this evening to recognize acts of generosity and construct a symbolic tribute to the power of generosity in our lives\, individually and as a community. \nBring an article that represents an act of generosity that has touched your life. After Rich gives a brief introduction\, you will be invited to bring your item forward and share its story. Remember to retrieve your item at the end of the evening! \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.
