SUMMARY:*Sit & Dharma Talk - Rich Howard - Approaching the Dhamma\, Part 2
DESCRIPTION:In the Buddha’s Words: Approaching the Dhamma – Part 2 \n“It is fitting for you to be perplexed\, O Kalamas.” These words spoken by the Buddha to the citizens of Kesaputta ring true for us today. How do we approach the teachings of the Buddha\, when there are so many competing spiritual\, philosophical\, and secular teachings\, so many schools of Buddhism\, and so many interpretations and teachers even within our own Insight (vipassana) tradition? \nThis evening\, we will continue our exploration of Chapter III\, Approaching the Dhamma\, from In the Buddha’s Words\, edited by Bhikkhu Bodhi. On July 13\, we discussed the most familiar part of the Buddha’s teaching to the Kalamas (AN 3:65)\, a list of the 10 things one should not rely on to decide which teachings to follow. This time\, we will look at Bhikkhu Bodhi’s point of view on the context for this first part of the Kalama Sutta. We will then move on to lesser known aspects of the sutta\, including how to practice and what benefits result from the practice. If there is time\, we will explore when\, if ever\, we might arrive at a place in our practice where we might accept teachings beyond the range of our personal experience. We will also look at the brief two paragraphs presented as the first text in this section. \nTo prepare for this evening\, please read the Introduction to Chapter III starting on page 81 through the first incomplete paragraph at the top of page 86\, and texts III\,1 and III\,2 (pages 88-91). \nIf you do not have the book yet\, here are some alternative citations from accesstoinsight.org: \n\nKalama Sutta: To the Kalamas — translation of the Kalama Sutta by Thanissaro Bhikkhu\nA Look at the Kalama Sutta — commentary by Bhikkhu Bodhi ( very similar to what is in the book)\n\nYou’ll enjoy the talk and discussion even if you did not attend Part 1\, if you do not have the book or if you haven’t had time to read the suggested preparatory passages. You can find a recording of Part 1 here: July 13th Audio Dharma post.

SUMMARY:*Sit & Dharma Talk - Dennis Warren - The Arising of Wisdom: Experiencing “The Characteristic of Nonself”
DESCRIPTION:The Arising of Wisdom – Experiencing “The Characteristic of Nonself”\nwith SIM Founding Teacher Dennis Warren \nWisdom (Insight)\, from a Buddhist perspective\, arises from “hearing” (listening to the Dharma)\, study and reflection capped by non-conceptual direct experience. This formula involves intentionally focusing the mind and attention on a number of different and particular experiences\, supported by the underlying psychology outlined by the historical Buddha.\nThis will be the first in a series of interlocking talks about the arising of Wisdom (Insight) by focusing on the experience of “nonself” or “notself.”  Dennis’ two most recent talks on the process of suffering thru clinging (becoming attached) to\, then identifying with five separate\, but tightly related features of human experience commonly referred to as the “Five Aggregates” will service as a foundation for these new talks. \n\nAudio from talk 20170619: The Arising Of Wisdom Through Engaging “The Five Aggregates”\nAudio from talk 20170720: The Arising Of Wisdom Through Engaging “The Five Aggregates” – Part 2\nTonight’s Talk Handout (PDF) : Dalai Lama & Chodron – Short & Long Term Practice Perspectives on Emotions\n\nPlease reflect on the comments of the Dalai Lama and Thubten Chodron about Short & Long Term Practice Perspectives On Emotions. What might this have to do with the nature of suffering associated with being and becoming\, on the one hand\, and the experience of nonself or notself\, on the other???\nFor those who are using In The  Buddha’s Words – An Anthology of Discourses from the Pali Cannon\, edited by Bhikkhu Bodhi as a reference\, please read the following: VII. The Path To Liberation – Introduction\, pages 301-309\, and suttas at pages 326 – 345.

SUMMARY:*Sit & Dharma Talk - Diane Wilde - Karma and Rebirth (continued)
DESCRIPTION:Karma and Rebirth (continued)\nSit & Dharma Talk with SIM Community Mentor Diane Wilde\n \nWhy the emphasis both in meditation and daily life on the present moment?  And why is it so difficult to maintain our focus on what is happening in the present moment?  Yet this is the core instruction we are continually reminded of as we navigate the Buddha’s path to awakening.  The present moment is the only place where we have the liberating opportunity to create our own karma\, thus creating a future of much more ease and contentment. By remaining oblivious to the present moment\, we stay in delusion…continuing our habitual reactivity mentally and to the episodes in our lives which perpetuates discontent and unhappiness. We might consider that each moment we are “present” is an opportunity for rebirth… to “wake up” to our lives. \nThe Buddha provided a check-list of sorts which helps us focus on what is taking place.  This list is the ten unwholesome actions — in thought\, word\, and deed — and their counterparts\, the ten wholesome actions.  As you read them\, you may notice a category or categories in which you struggle — or have ignored — which has caused unhappiness for yourself and others.  We will discuss these “wholesome and unwholesome actions” and how effectively to work with them.\nIn preparation for the evening’s discussion\, please read “V. The Way to a Fortunate Rebirth” Chapter 2 (page 156 – 161) in Bhikkhu Bodhi’s book\, “In the Buddha’s Words.” \n\nTo review Diane’s previous talk on this topic\, click here.\n\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.

SUMMARY:*Sit & Dharma Talk - Rich Howard - Five Spiritual Faculties
DESCRIPTION:Five Spiritual Faculties\nSit & Dharma Talk with SIM Community Mentor Rich Howard \nThe faculties of faith\, energy\, mindfulness\, concentration\, and wisdom are our constant helpers on the path of awakening. They operate as a spiral rather than a straight line\, deepening and supporting each other as we progress. This evening we will begin  our exploration of these faculties. This evening will serve as good preparation for the bilingual daylong (with Andrea Castillo) on Saturday August 26\, where we will explore and discuss the faculties in greater depth. \nSeveral suttas that mention the five faculties are presented in Chapter X\, Planes of Realization\, of “In the Buddha’s Words.” Text X\,4(2) on pages 406-407 (The Trainee and the Arahant; SN 48.53) is one example; Bhikkhu Bodhi’s brief introduction to this text is in the first full paragraph on page 381. However\, the introduction and texts in this chapter discuss the five faculties in the context of stages on the path to awakening. This will not be the focus of our discussion. \nA more useful text for our purpose of a general introduction to the Five Spiritual Faculties can be found in Thanissaro Bhikkhu’s translation of the Indriya-vibhanga Sutta (SN 48.10). \nThere is also a brief but useful essay by Bhikkhu Bodhi on the Five Spiritual Faculties. \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.

SUMMARY:Bilingual Day-long Retreat with Andrea Castillo and Rich Howard
DESCRIPTION:The Five Spiritual Faculties/Las Cinco Facultades Espirituales \nIn this daylong\, we will explore the Five Spiritual Faculties through brief talks\, exercises\, and discussion.

They are pragmatic skills that can be developed and implemented in every day life as well as formal meditation. \nThe talks will be in English; discussion groups will be in Spanish (hosted by Andrea) and English (hosted by Rich). There will also be periods of silent meditation and mindful movement. Bring a potluck lunch item from your culture to share and plan to stay on the Sacramento Dharma Center (SDC) property to make the most of this day. There will be an opportunity to offer dana to the teacher. \nWe aspire to welcome all to this day of community and practice\, including the human varieties of gender identity\, sexual orientation\, cultural and ethnic background\, family situation\, and citizenship or immigration status. \n\nRetreat Flyer (PDF)\n\nANDREA CASTILLO\, originaria de la ciudad de México\, ha practicado la meditación introspectiva (Insight o Vipassana) desde 1998 con su maestro Gil Fronsdal y ha participado en aproximadamente un total de 9 meses de retiros residenciales.

SUMMARY:*Sit & Dharma Talk - Laura Rosenthal - Spiritual Bypass: Can We Be Too Good?
DESCRIPTION:Spiritual Bypass – Can We Be Too Good?\nSit & Dharma Talk with SIM Community Member\, Laura Rosenthal \nContemporary Buddhist practitioners and teachers sometimes talk about “spiritual bypass.” This term is not found in classical Buddhist texts. What does it mean? How does it affect our practice\, both in formal meditation and in every day life? Can we be too good for our own good? Join Laura Rosenthal for a dharma talk and group conversation about this very practical topic. \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.
