SUMMARY:*Sit & Dharma Talk - Dennis Warren - Starting Anew - Expectations For Practice
DESCRIPTION:Starting Anew – Expectations For Practice During The Next Decade\nSit & Dharma Talk with SIM Founding Teacher Dennis Warren \nWith the start of a new decade\, there is real value in looking at what we can reasonably expect from our individual practices as community level practitioners? What tests or standards did the historical Buddha recommend for assessing how we have done in the last decade\, and what we may achieve in the new decade?\nThis evening will involve an examination of the historical context the lead to the Buddha’s approaches to psychological\, emotional and spiritual development. It will also involve an investigation of guidelines for creating a sound practice and assessing it impact in our lives.\nThe discussion this evening will build on a number of themes explored in Dennis’ presentation on December 19 “Craving and Clinging – Stepping Stones on The Path of Both Suffering & Awakening.” You can listen to the Dec 19th talk that’s posted to our audio dharma library (click here). \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.

SUMMARY:*Sit & Dharma Talk - Rich Howard - The Five Reflections
DESCRIPTION:The Five Reflections: The Adult Facts of Life\nSit & Dharma Talk with SIM Community Teacher Rich Howard.\nThe Five Reflections are that we are subject (1) to aging\, (2) to illness\, and (3) to death; (4) that we will be separated from all that is dear to us; and (5) that we are responsible for our own actions and destiny. Many Buddhists throughout the world take these as a daily practice\, a reminder that everything is impermanent and that loss is never far away. The historical Buddha recommended reflecting often on these facts “whether one is a woman or a man\, lay or ordained.” On this evening of reflection and discussion\, we will examine each of these “adult facts of life” and explore our relationship to them. \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.
