SUMMARY:(Hybrid) Sit & Dharma Talk - Dennis Warren - Reconsidering Sitting Meditation
DESCRIPTION:Reconsidering Sitting Meditation: An Experiment & Exploration\nSit & Dharma Talk with SIM Founding Teacher Dennis Warren \n* Hybrid events can be attended via Zoom or in-person at the Sacramento Dharma Center. Dennis will be presenting by ZOOM.\nJoin online meeting: https://us06web.zoom.us/j/82992020067\nPasscode: 055014\nJoin by phone: 1-669-900-6833 ( Meeting ID: 829 9202 0067 )\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:\nSitting Insight Meditation is one essential element of a purposeful and intentional life. It is\, at its core\, about laying the foundation for a rich\, full\, satisfying life. It points our mind\, heart and body towards a conscious and awake relationship with ourselves\, with others and the world around us.\nSeveral preconditions must be in place in order for sitting meditation to play these defining and guiding roles. Specifically\, we need to develop a combined conceptual and experience model of what we are doing in meditation\, how we are doing it and why we are doing it. If this is not present\, our sitting meditation will be unfocused and misdirected. More importantly\, it will not direct\, support and sustain us on the path to a more satisfying life or a practice with the potential of being release from the constant and punishing management and control of the self or ego.\nThis evening will involve a reconsideration of several fundamental elements of Sitting Insight Meditation. It will include an experiment during the 700 pm hour. \nYou will need to have a straight back chair available to use during the meditation \n– the kind that would normally be part of a kitchen or dining room set. We will use the sitting experiment during the first hour as part of our exploration of sitting fundamentals during the 800 pm hour. \nThe subject matter of this evening is appropriate for all stages of practice.

SUMMARY:(Hybrid) Sit & Dharma Talk - Vance Pryor - Mindfulness of the Body
DESCRIPTION:Talk topic: Mindfulness of the Body\nSit & Dharma Talk with Visiting Teacher Vance Pryor\n* Hybrid events can be attended via Zoom or onsite at the Sacramento Dharma Center.\nJoin online meeting: https://us06web.zoom.us/j/82426058742\nPasscode: 091813\nJoin by phone: 1-669-900-6833 ( Meeting ID: 824 2605 8742 )\nFor tips and instructions to join the meeting\, check this news blog. \nThursday Night Talk Dana\n[give_form id=”19397″ 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 100% of your donation will be shared with Vance Pryor. \n \nVANCE PRYOR\, PsyD\, began insight meditation in 1998. He has been deeply influenced by the teachings of Sayadaw U Pandita and Sayadaw U Tejaniya. His training to become a teacher has been supported by the mentorship of Steve Armstrong and Kamala Masters. He is currently participating in IMS’s 2017-2021 Teacher Training Program. \n  \nTopic Details: \nTonight’s talk will emphasize working with the first foundation of mindfulness\, the body. Skillfully incorporating this aspect of our experience into our meditation practice is invaluable in leading the mind to greater understandings of impermanence. This\, in turn\, reduces the mental forces of craving and clinging.
