SUMMARY:*Sit & Dharma Talk - Diane Wilde - How to Ask the Right Question
DESCRIPTION:Knowing How to Ask the Right Question\nSit & Dharma Talk with SIM Community Teacher Rev. Diane Wilde\nThe Buddha taught that how we frame our questions is equally\, and usually\, more important then the answer.  In other words\, the Buddha wasn’t content simply to provide answers to people’s questions. He also wanted to show them how unskillful questions can be recognized through testing\, and how skillful questions—conducive to the end of suffering—can be framed and tested in their place.  These skills are applicable to our meditation practice as well as in daily life.  For example\, we might begin to see when we or others are asking a question not for an answer\, but to enhance a particular self-identity. If we do not know how to frame our questions skillfully\, we can find ourselves mired in an untenable situation of our own making. As Voltaire noted\, “Judge a man by his questions rather than his answers.” \n  \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. \nThursday Night Talk Dana \n“Generosity is the virtue that leads to peace.” – The Historical Buddha \nWe recognize that donating by cash or check at the time you attend this event may not always be convenient for you.

SUMMARY:*Sit & Dharma Talk - Dennis Warren - Working With Doubt
DESCRIPTION:Investigation Leading to Liberating Insight – A Practical Model For Working With Doubt\nSit & Dharma Talk with SIM Founding Teacher Dennis Warren \nHow can doubt based experiences be investigated in a way that leads to liberating insight? This is one of the fundamental skills of a good practice. This evening will be devoted to examining a practical\, experiential and hands-on model of working with doubt.\nWhile doubt can appear in many different places in our practice and our life\, it usually acts as an undermining factor in our confidence\, decision making and behavior. What is doubt? What is its experiential origin? What causes it to be present? What causes it to diminish and no longer be present? What can we do to work with it skillfully while it is present? A helpful handout of the model will be used as the outline for the evening.\nAs preparation for this evening\, reflect on how doubt has influenced your experience and decision making in the last year\, and come prepared with questions you have regarding your experiences. \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.
