SUMMARY:(Remote) Sit & Dharma Talk - Dennis Warren - Where Are We Going?
DESCRIPTION:Where Are We Going?\nSit & Dharma Talk with SIM Founding Teacher Dennis Warren \nJoin online meeting: https://zoom.us/j/99650304416\nPasscode: 661332\nJoin by phone: 1-669-900-6833 ( Meeting ID: 996 5030 4416 )\nFor tips and instructions on how to participate\, check this news blog. \nThursday Night Talk Dana\n[give_form id=”10310″ show_title=”false” show_content=”none” display_style=”reveal”] “Generosity is the virtue that leads to peace.” – The Historical Buddha\nFor remote meetings\, please use the form above to donate by credit card or your PayPal account. Enter the amount you’d like to give and 75% of your donation will be shared with Dennis Warren. \nTopic details:\nIt’s good to step back from time to time and try to place our lives in context. This is one way for us to get a clear picture of where we are headed and whether our meditation and spiritual practices are helping us head in that direction.\nThis night will focus on two familiar situations we regularly face in meditation\, practice and daily life. This examination should be interesting and helpful no matter your level of knowledge or experience.\nWe’ll also take a hands-on look at two realities that our minds almost always want to treat as theory or philosophy\, rather than real life\, tangible\, useful experiences: Annica (impermanence) and Anatta (no-self.) What are these two experiences as real-life events? What relevance do they have to our relationships and everyday activities? How can they help us live a richer\, fuller\, deeper\, more vivid life?\nThis is what we’ll explore Thursday night.

SUMMARY:(Remote) Sit & Dharma Talk - Diane Wilde - Art of Being Wrong
DESCRIPTION:The Art of Being Wrong\nSit & Dharma Talk with SIM Community Teacher Rev. Diane Wilde\nJoin online meeting: https://zoom.us/j/92645907744\nPasscode: 878984\nJoin by phone: 1-669-900-6833 ( Meeting ID: 926 4590 7744 )\nFor tips and instructions on how to participate\, check this news blog. \nThursday Night Talk Dana \n[give_form id=”9758″ show_title=”false” show_content=”none” display_style=”reveal”]\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 75% of your donation will be shared with Rev. Diane Wilde. \nTopic details:\nBeing wrong: It is a fact of life that is often difficult to admit to others\, as well as to ourselves. There are a myriad of lessons\, teachings and inspiring examples of how to be successful in all facets of our life. We are so conditioned to be right\, it is a jarring affront when we find ourselves on the “wrong side” of a situation or opinion. To compensate for this assault on the ego\, we may even have developed rationalizing strategies in order to minimize or even negate being wrong. True acceptance of our mistakes and our own imperfections can lead to a healing of relationships\, alleviation of much personal stress and may even open up to a much deeper understanding of “not self.”
