SUMMARY:(Hybrid) Sit & Dharma Talk - Rich Howard - Speech\, Action\, Livelihood: Where the Rubber meets the Path
DESCRIPTION:Insight Meditation and Dharma Talk with SIM Teacher Rich Howard\n\n\n\nFor biographical details of the teacher Rich Howard\, click here. \n\n\n\n\n* The teacher will present in-person at the Dharma Center.Hybrid events can be attended via Zoom or onsite at the Sacramento Dharma Center. \n\n\n\n\nSpeech\, Action\, Livelihood: Where the Rubber meets the PathIn this second part of our six-week exploration of the Noble Eightfold Path\, we will delve into the three components of the training in sila\, the development of ethical conduct. While some elements of the Path may sound theoretical or far from our experience\, the practices of skillful speech\, right action\, and our very livelihood are at the heart of our everyday lives\, whether or not we consider ourselves “Buddhist.” Connecting these areas of our life to the other Path factors like intention and mindfulness brings richness and depth to everyday activities\, enhances the quality of our relationships\, and brings ease and the “bliss of blamelessness” to our lives “off the cushion.” The mission of Sacramento Insight Meditation is to integrate “meditation practices and awareness in all aspects of individual\, family\, educational\, institutional\, work\, and community life.” The training in sila is the way to do that. \n\n\n\nOffer a Teacher Donation\n\n\n\nRich Howard will receive at least 75% of your donation. \n\n\n\nUse the following donate button and select Talk – Jan 15 Rich from the dropdown list. \n\n\n\n\nDONATE – Thu Talk\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nHow to Attend Remotely\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nJoin online meeting: https://zoom.us/join or join by phone at 1-669-900-6833( Meeting ID: 862 9909 1295 and Passcode: 115163)For tips and instructions to join the meeting\, click here to check this news blog.

SUMMARY:(Hybrid) Sit & Dharma Talk - Diane Wilde - Right Effort
DESCRIPTION:Insight Meditation and Dharma Talk with SIM Teacher Diane Wilde\n\n\n\nFor biographical details of the teacher Diane Wilde\, click here. \n\n\n\n\n* The teacher will present in-person at the Dharma Center.Hybrid events can be attended via Zoom or onsite at the Sacramento Dharma Center. \n\n\n\n\nRight EffortTonight we continue our series on the Noble Eightfold Path with Right Effort\, the first of the “Samadhi” factors\, the teachings that deal with mental cultivation. \n\n\n\nRight Effort addresses our inner life: preventing unwholesome states from arising\, letting go of those that have already appeared\, and cultivating and sustaining wholesome qualities of mind. Traditionally\, it is not about striving or self-pressure\, but about wise discernment—knowing what nourishes clarity\, kindness\, and freedom\, and what leads to suffering. Learning what sort of effort to expend in our sitting meditation is crucial for developing insight. In daily life\, Right Effort shows up as choosing where we place our attention\, how we respond to habits and emotions\, and when we gently redirect ourselves rather than push or judge. It is the practice of effort that is balanced\, humane\, and aligned with our deepest values. \n\n\n\nOffer a Teacher Donation\n\n\n\nDiane Wilde will receive at least 75% of your donation. \n\n\n\nUse the following donate button and select Talk – Jan 29 Diane from the dropdown list. \n\n\n\n\nDONATE – Thu Talk\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nHow to Attend Remotely\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nJoin online meeting: https://zoom.us/join or join by phone at 1-669-900-6833( Meeting ID: 862 9909 1295 and Passcode: 115163)For tips and instructions to join the meeting\, click here to check this news blog.
