SUMMARY:*Sit & Dharma Talk - Dennis Warren - Evaluating Your Practice
DESCRIPTION:A Practical Model For Evaluating Your Practice.\nSit & Dharma Talk with SIM Founding Teacher Dennis Warren \nWe seldom talk about evaluating how we are practicing or what model might be used for doing an evaluation.\nThis evening will be devoted to examining a practical\, experiential and hands-on evaluation model that we can use to evaluate how we are practicing\, regardless of the stage or sophistication of our practice. A handout of the model will be used as the outline for the evening. \nSacramento Insight Meditation events are sustained by the generosity of instructors in offering teachings freely and on the generosity of students and members of the meditative community in the form of financial support\, service and participation in events. With our practice of dana\, we support our Sangha. \n

SUMMARY:*Sit & Dharma Talk - Rich Howard - Starting Over
DESCRIPTION:Starting Over \nSit & Dharma Talk with SIM Community Mentor Rich Howard \nSenior Teacher Kamala Masters reminds us\, “Starting over is the practice.” Reflecting on this simple instruction has many implications: self-compassion\, patience\, and an encouragement to gentle\, persevering effort. We will explore the practice itself in a guided meditation to start the evening\, then discuss the many lessons to be learned from this seemingly simple instruction. Bring your beginner’s mind! \nSacramento Insight Meditation events are sustained by the generosity of instructors in offering teachings freely and on the generosity of students and members of the meditative community in the form of financial support\, service and participation in events. With our practice of dana\, we support our Sangha.
