Intentionally cultivating gratitude even during challenging times helps serve as an antidote to the negative bias of the mind. Otherwise\, we often focus too much of our energy on what is wrong or lacking in our lives\, rather than appreciating the many simple blessings all around us. Being grateful also counters tendencies towards greed\, envy\, jealousy and pride. \n\n\n\nOffer a Teacher Donation\n\n\n\nWalt Opie will receive at least 75% of your donation. \n\n\n\nUse the following donate button and select Talk – Sep 4 Walt 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: 846 4947 9345 and Passcode: 111759)For tips and instructions to join the meeting\, click here to check this news blog.

SUMMARY:(Hybrid) Sit & Dharma Talk - Diane Wilde - Why Is Offering Forgiveness So Difficult?
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\nThis talk is part of the six-week talk series The Buddha’s Antidotes for Challenging Times. \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\nWhy Is Offering Forgiveness So Difficult?What happens when we refuse to forgive? We’ve all felt it—holding on to insults or painful actions done to us\, or replaying the memory of harm caused to others. Old wounds harden into resentment\, anger drains our energy\, and self-blame keeps us stuck in the past. Buddhism offers another way: forgiveness as a path to freedom. By letting go of grudges\, daring to ask for forgiveness\, and softening toward ourselves\, we release the poisons that cloud the heart. In doing so\, we also loosen the grip of the restless ego.  \n\n\n\nTonight’s talk will offer some inspirational stories of forgiveness and will invite you to explore forgiveness in your own lives. Genuine forgiveness is not a weakness or forgetting\, but is a courageous practice that restores peace\, clarity\, and compassion. \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 – Sep 11 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: 846 4947 9345 and Passcode: 111759)For tips and instructions to join the meeting\, click here to check this news blog.

SUMMARY:(Hybrid) Sit & Dharma Talk - Dennis Warren - Generosity As an Antidote and a Doorway
DESCRIPTION:Insight Meditation and Dharma Talk with SIM Founding Teacher Dennis Warren\n\n\n\nFor biographical details of the teacher Dennis Warren\, click here. \n\n\n\nThis talk is part of the six-week talk series The Buddha’s Antidotes for Challenging Times. \n\n\n\n\n* The teacher will present in-pesron at the Dharma Center.Hybrid events can be attended via Zoom or onsite at the Sacramento Dharma Center. \n\n\n\n\nGenerosity As an Antidote and a DoorwayThe Historical Buddha considered Generosity the first and foundational parami (or essential quality of mind & heart that leads to awakening.) It’s use as an antidote\, as well as a path of practice\, can support a rich experience of daily life and the simultaneous development of gradual awakening. \n\n\n\nThis evening will place Generosity in the context of the Historical Buddha’s psychology and teachings. We’ll look closely at Generosity as an antidote to a number of problematic states of mind and habits of reactivity. \n\n\n\nThis will be the first of two related talks on Generosity. The second will be part of the two day SIM in person retreat on October 24 and 24. That second talk will explore a model of Generosity as a doorway and path moving from a sense of separation to connectedness and inter-relationship. This will include the Buddha’s advice that we should be generous in the way we think\, and by thinking\, create the world we live in \n\n\n\nThe subject matter of this evening will be appropriate for all stages of practice. You can attend in person or by ZOOM. Dennis will be presenting in person and encourages you to be there in person as well. \n\n\n\nOffer a Teacher Donation\n\n\n\nDennis Warren will receive at least 75% of your donation. \n\n\n\nUse the following donate button and select Talk – Sep 18 Dennis 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: 846 4947 9345 and Passcode: 111759)For tips and instructions to join the meeting\, click here to check this news blog.

SUMMARY:(Hybrid) Daylong Retreat - Diane Wilde - Death As Our Teacher
DESCRIPTION:Daylong Retreat with SIM Teacher Reverend Diane Wilde\n\n\n\nFor biographical details of the teacher Diane Wilde\, click here. \n\n\n\nRetreat Theme\n\n\n\nDeath As Our TeacherJust as life is happening all around us\, so is death. Human beings appear to be the only species that are conscious of our mortality. Yet most people purposefully ignore this fact of our existence\, preferring to put efforts\, thoughts and practice on “more pleasant things”. We yearn to “wake up”\, to let go of our endless attachments and experience contentment and ease in our lives. Paradoxically\, facing the death of our loved ones and ourselves\, is one of the classic Buddhist teachings for accepting the truth of existence and waking up to impermanence.  It is also a teaching that can greatly reduce and perhaps even eliminate the biggest delusion of all… that everyone else will die\, except me. By avoiding the reality of our own deaths\, we deny ourselves the life-affirming lessons that acceptance of death provides… that life CAN BE lived joyfully and with gratitude. Please plan on staying all day and bring a lunch. \n\n\n\n\nThis daylong may not be suitable for those with anxiety\, trauma or those who have recently experienced the death of a loved one. \n\n\n\n\nAbout This Hybrid Retreat\n\n\n\n\nThe teacher will present in-person at the Dharma Center. Participants may attend this Hybrid event via Zoom or in-person at the SDC.\n\n\n\nPre-registration is required and we recommend you pay the registration fee in advance using the registration button shown below. Since your registration choice indicates if you’ll be attending via Zoom or in-person\, registering early helps us determine how many people the meditation room should accommodate.\n\n\n\nAfter you’ve registered you may later offer a donation in gratitude of the teacher.

SUMMARY:(Hybrid) Sit & Dharma Talk - Diane Wilde - Mudita: “Finding joy in the happiness and well-being of others.” Why can it often be so difficult?
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\nMudita: “Finding joy in the happiness and well-being of others.” Why can it often be so difficult?Thursday October 23 is the first in a series of talks prepared for the SIM mini-retreat which takes place on October 24 and 25. The mini-retreat is entitled\, “Applying the Buddha’s Antidotes in Daily Life.”   \n\n\n\nThe first talk is on Mudita\, also known as Sympathetic Joy. Mudita can be defined as enjoying the good fortune or happiness experienced by others as well as ourselves. In today’s fast-paced\, phone-obsessed\, competitive society\, we bypass much of the joy in our lives as well as in the lives of others. Additionally due to societal polarization\, as well as the emphasis on winning—no matter what it takes—we often find ourselves engaging in mind states that are the direct opposite of mudita.  Due to jealousy\, anger\, and toxic competitiveness\, we find ourselves taking delight in the misfortune of others.  This “dark glee” is called schadenfreud and continually engaging in this mind state has severe repercussions including the exacerbation of depression and anxiety. Tonight we will learn practical methods for decreasing schadenfreud and for elevating mudita in our lives\, thus increasing our own contentment\, ease and a sense of true connection with others. \n\n\n\n \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 – Oct 23 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: 893 8282 0540 and Passcode: 121034)For tips and instructions to join the meeting\, click here to check this news blog.
