SUMMARY:(Hybrid) Sit & Dharma Talk - Diane Wilde - Are You Listening?
DESCRIPTION:Are You Listening?\nSit & Dharma Talk with SIM Community Teacher Rev. Diane Wilde\n* Hybrid events can be attended via Zoom or in-person at the Sacramento Dharma Center\nJoin online meeting: https://us06web.zoom.us/j/89174387201\nPasscode: 218936\nJoin by phone: 1-669-900-6833 ( Meeting ID: 891 7438 7201 )\nFor tips and instructions to join the meeting\, check this news blog. \n\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. \n\nTopic details: \nDid you know that listening is a learned skill?  Unlike speech which comes naturally to us\, REALLY listening isn’t an innate trait. Why is that? Listening requires taming the ego-driven addiction to being center stage\, and trying to take over another’s “air time”. To speak is to articulate words that convey meaning\, and to listen is to understand the true intent behind words being spoken. When the Buddha spoke about Right Speech\, he was including both sides of the communication equation; skillful means of intentional speech as well as intentional listening.  Skillful listening means listening mindfully to others\, especially when we habitually discount what “they” have to say. It also means listening deeply to our own innate wisdom\, which we too frequently ignore because it may not align with our long-held beliefs about ourselves. Learning how to deeply listen is a skill that changes attitudes and beliefs as well as enhancing empathy and community.  Deep listening is a great skill to learn for the new year.

SUMMARY:(Remote) Sit & Dharma Talk - Seth Castleman - Have a Little Faith!
DESCRIPTION:Have a Little Faith!\nSit & Dharma Talk with Visiting Teacher Rabbi Seth Castleman\nJoin online meeting: https://us06web.zoom.us/j/86043707674\nPasscode: 591726\nJoin by phone: 1-669-900-9128 ( Meeting ID: 860 4370 7674 )\nFor tips and instructions on how to participate\, check this news blog.\n\nThursday Night Talk Dana[give_form id=”16677″ show_title=”false” show_content=”none” display_style=”reveal”] “Generosity is the virtue that leads to peace.” – The Historical BuddhaFor 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 Seth Castleman. \n\nRABBI SETH CASTLEMAN is a teacher\, writer\, and storyteller with over twenty years experience teaching mindfulness and spiritual practice. Castleman is trained in both the Jewish and Buddhist traditions. After 20 years of meditation practice and two years of silent retreat as a lay-person in the US\, India\, and Nepal and as a monk in Burma\, Seth was trained as a teacher by Jack Kornfield at Spirit Rock Meditation Center in Woodacre\, CA. He was authorized as a meditation/dharma teacher in 2008. Following eight years of rabbinical studies in the US and Israel/Palestine\, Castleman was ordained in 2011 as a rabbi by one Orthodox\, one Conservative\, and one Reform rabbi. Castleman has published in two dozen newspapers\, periodicals\, and anthologies on the intersection of contemplative practice and social justice and the transformational power of brokenness. As a storyteller\, Seth has performed in theaters\, on radio and television\, and at countless kitchen tables. Seth uses myth\, storytelling\, and humor as central tools in his teaching and counseling work. Seth Castleman is married to Reverend Elizabeth Griswold\, making them\, quite possibly\, the only rabbi—Christian minister married couple in the US. Seth and Elizabeth live in Davis\, CA with their three children.

SUMMARY:(Remote) Sit & Dharma Talk - Dennis Warren - Healing and Our Biographical Narratives
DESCRIPTION:Healing and Our Biographical Narratives\nSit & Dharma Talk with SIM Founding Teacher Dennis Warren \nJoin online meeting: https://us06web.zoom.us/j/81262809252Passcode: 036347Join by phone: 1-669-900-6833 ( Meeting ID: 812 6280 9252 )For tips and instructions on how to participate\, check this news blog. \n\nThursday Night Talk Dana[give_form id=”10310″ show_title=”false” show_content=”none” display_style=”reveal”] “Generosity is the virtue that leads to peace.” – The Historical BuddhaFor 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. \n\nTopic details: \nBuddhist practice has a unique approach to problem solving and healing. The teachings\, methods and underlying psychology dismantle the confusing\, and sometimes overwhelming\, emotional energy of difficult reactive patterns and our attachment to a biographical narrative that identifies us as damaged. This approach focuses on how we relate to the narrative\, not the biographical details of the narrative. \nThis evening will explore two practical questions: \n\nWhat is the Buddhist approach to problem solving and healing?\nWhat role does our individual biographical narratives play in this process?\n\nThe subject matter of this evening is appropriate for all stages of practice. You can attend in person or by ZOOM.

DESCRIPTION:The Paramis\n\n\n\nSit & Dharma Talk with SIM Community Teacher Rich Howard\n\n\n\nDeveloping a Mind/Heart of Peace The Paramis are qualities of heart that when developed bring the highest blessing\, which is peace.
