SUMMARY:*Sit & Dharma Talk - Rich Howard - Loving Anger
DESCRIPTION:Loving Anger\nSit & Dharma Talk with SIM Community Teacher Rich Howard\nN O T E  – Due to technical difficulties\, we couldn’t include this talk in our Audio Dharma library however we do have this handout that Rich provided the attendees – Loving Anger Resources (.pdf) \nWe may have idealized views of the spiritual path. We may not want to look at the shadow side of our personality. Yet “seeing things as they are” is the very meaning of “vipassana” or insight. It is only by allowing our anger\, fear\, and other challenging emotions to come into view and be known that we can move through them to a place of peace. At the same time\, we must be wary of “spiritual bypassing\,” a premature “transcendence” of uncomfortable emotions. As Rumi says in his poem The Guest House\, “meet them at the door laughing and invite them in.” We will spend this evening learning to work with\, and maybe even love\, uncomfortable emotions\, using anger as a case study.\nThis emotion is so important to understand that Thich Nhat Hanh has an entire book on it (“Anger: Wisdom for Cooling the Flames”) and Bhikkhu Bodhi devotes Chapter III of “The Buddha’s Teachings on Social and Communal Harmony” to anger (pages 47-68). Bring an open heart! \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. If that’s the case\, please use the form below to donate by credit card or your PayPal account. Enter the amount you’d like to give and your donation will be shared with Rich Howard and SIM. \n[give_form id=”10304″ show_title=”false” show_content=”none” display_style=”reveal”]

SUMMARY:*Sit & Dharma Talk - Diane Wilde - Entering the Stream\, Dealing with Doubt
DESCRIPTION:The Second in a series on “Entering the Stream” of Awakening. To listen to Diane first talk on this subject\, click here. \nEntering the Stream to Awakening\, Dealing with Doubt\nSit & Dharma Talk with SIM Community Teacher Diane Wilde \nYogis who are sincere in their practice\, and desire to alleviate suffering are said to be on the precipice of “Entering the Stream”. A Stream-Enterer\, known as a Sotapanna in Pali\, the ancient language of the Buddha\, is a practitioner who is well on the path to “awakening”\, which means cutting through and eliminating the fetters that cause suffering. The first fetter is understanding the delusion of self-identity\, the belief that each of us is a separate entity unto ourselves. The second fetter to be uprooted is doubt. Tonight we will briefly discuss self-identity\, which will be the topic of the Feb. 23rd daylong and examine in more detail\, the second “fetter” of doubt. Doubt is traditionally seen as having two aspects: skillful doubt\, which prods us into deeper experiential investigation of the path\, and unskillful doubt\, which is a dead-end\, leading to confusion and unhappiness. We will discuss the characteristics of both types of doubt and how skillful doubt is an aid in navigating the difficulties we often encounter in our own practice. Unskillful doubt is abandoned as we Enter the Stream. \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. If that’s the case\, please use the form below to donate by credit card or your PayPal account. Enter the amount you’d like to give and your donation will be shared with Rev.
