SUMMARY:(Hybrid) Sit & Dharma Talk - Diane Wilde - The Buddha’s To-Do List for a Happier Life
DESCRIPTION:Meditation & 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* Hybrid events can be attended via Zoom or onsite at the Sacramento Dharma Center. \n\n\n\n\nThe Buddha’s To-Do List for a Happier LifeDiscursive\, subtle states of mind are difficult to isolate which makes it difficult to utilize methods to lessen their negative impact on us. They just seem to be “us”\, who we are. Even though they are almost always “invisible”\, you can count on experiencing their results… anxiety and more anxiety! The Buddha describes these troubling subtle states of mind as the Ten Fetters. He offers an approach\, a sort of “To-Do List” on how to mentally address the Fetters\, and what happens when we undertake the process of recognizing them. Tonight we will do a brief overview of the Ten Fetters and their unique properties. We’ll spend additional time on the first fetter\, which is the illusion we each have concerning our own personality\, or “personality view”. We will explore this first fetter through a few brief mental exercises. \n\n\n\nOffer a Teacher Donation\n\n\n[give_form id=”9758″ show_title=”false” show_content=”none” display_style=”reveal”] \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: 850 9796 2731 and Passcode: 136792 )For tips and instructions to join the meeting\, click here to check this news blog.

We may even be facing periods of boredom. Or we may have children who are BORED!! Dr. Katie Hurley (Happy Kid Handbook) says\, “We have a tendency to treat boredom as a sign of distress\, or a sort of call for help. It is uncomfortable\, but it’s not necessarily negative.” Like any hindrance (restlessness\, sleepiness\, etc.)\, we can take up boredom as an object of awareness\, and by learning about an apparently negative mind state\, learn about ourselves and our suffering. On a meditation retreat\, John Travis has recommended looking closely at boredom. What might we find? This talk will explore boredom and related mind states.  \n\n\n\nOffer a Teacher Donation\n\n\n[give_form id=”10304″ show_title=”false” show_content=”none” display_style=”reveal”] \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: 850 9796 2731 and Passcode: 136792 )For tips and instructions to join the meeting\, click here to check this news blog.

SUMMARY:(Hybrid) Sit & Dharma Talk - Dennis Warren - Disappointment: An Important Practice Leading to Insight
DESCRIPTION:Meditation & Dharma Talk with SIM Founding Teacher Dennis Warren\n\n\n\nFor biographical details of the teacher Dennis Warren\, 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\nDisappointment – An Important Practice Leading to InsightBuddhism encourages us to realize that things are frequently not as they first appear. In many cases\, the true nature of something is the reverse of what we initially think: what we want and believe is helpful\, harms us in the long run; what we don’t want is what we most need; what seems to be a risk is an opportunity.Disappointment falls into this category. Although we would prefer not to experience it\, disappointment is a pre-condition to real development in practice and a more open\, inclusive\, kind life.This evening will explore the nature of disappointment and the important role it plays in spiritual practice. What is it? How can we welcome it into our lives? How can we relate to it as a practice\, rather than as something unwanted? And why is it indispensable to deep\, fundamental insight?The 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[give_form id=”10310″ show_title=”false” show_content=”none” display_style=”reveal”] \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: 870 2524 1285 and Passcode: 328267 )For tips and instructions to join the meeting\, click here to check this news blog.
