SUMMARY:(Remote) Sit & Dharma Talk - Diane Wilde - Practicing Nonattachment
DESCRIPTION:The Challenge of Practicing Nonattachment as a Lay Person\nSit & Dharma Talk with SIM Community Teacher Rev. Diane Wilde\nJoin online meeting: https://zoom.us/j/95864154754\nPasscode: 320953\nJoin by phone: 1-669-900-6833 ( Meeting ID: 958 6415 4754 )\nFor tips and instructions to join the meeting\, 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:\nMonks and ascetics in the Buddha’s time practiced non-attachment which meant leaving wives\, husbands\, parents\, children\, and society. Contemporary monastics also take on the homeless life which the Buddha said was necessary for complete “awakening.” Where does this leave lay people? Lay people value the teachings\, but there is confusion about practicing non-attachment in everyday life. How can we keep ourselves free from attachment with those beings we care about… pets\, partners\, children\, grandchildren\, good friends. Tonight we will look at how lay people can practice with the challenge of attachment in our relationships\, in order for our practice to grow — with the hope of achieving true freedom.

He graduated from the Spirit Rock Community Dharma Leader training program and the Mindfulness Based Stress Reduction training program.  He is a practicing emergency medicine physician who lives in the rural Arizona desert with his wife\, Jenny and four cats. \n. \nTopic details:\nChange is a constant in life but for many of us the last year has brought more intense and radical change\, much of it unwelcomed and challenging. There is so much suffering these days due to loss and grief. Rates of depression\, anxiety\, addiction and suicide are at an all time high. Tonight we will explore using our meditation practice tools to find relief\, understanding and acceptance of our losses and to use grief as a doorway into deeper insights. Jeff will share some personal stories of loss and sorrow and liberation from the healthcare frontlines of the pandemic. He will discuss many useful practices to work with our individual and collective grief and suffering.
