SUMMARY:(Remote) *Sit & Dharma Talk - Diane Wilde - End of the World
DESCRIPTION:The End of the World\nSit & Dharma Talk with SIM Community Teacher Diane Wilde\nJoin online meeting: https://zoom.us/j/685690194\nPasscode: SIMtalk\nJoin by phone: 1-669-900-6833 ( Meeting ID: 685 690 194 )\nFor tips and instructions on how to use the access methods listed above\, check this news blog. \nThursday Night Talk Dana\n“Generosity is the virtue that leads to peace.” – The Historical Buddha\n[give_form id=”9758″ show_title=”false” show_content=”none” display_style=”reveal”] For remote meetings\, please use the form above to donate by credit card or your PayPal account. Enter the amount you’d like to give and 75% of your donation will be shared with Rev. Diane Wilde. \nTopic details: Reading the title of this talk\, “The End of the World” might bring up visual images such as a catastrophic asteroid strike\, economic or religious conflicts that culminate into a devastating World War… or maybe a world wide pandemic. The Buddha in a few suttas addressed the ending of this world and what takes its place. The world as we knew it\, is indeed ending. Nothing will be as it was\, no matter how diligently some of us will try to make it “normal” again. It’s not just the exterior world we inhabit that is ending. As the Buddha taught\, our internal mental world is continually ending and being reborn moment by moment. Actually being aware that this is taking place is an incredible opportunity to have a hand in how the new internal world will manifest. The internal world that emerges ultimately creates the external world. How we do that\, and what we create is up to us.

SUMMARY:(Remote) *Sit & Dharma Talk - Dennis Warren
DESCRIPTION:The Foundational Role of “Sensory Awareness” and “Intuition” In Practice & Daily Life\nSit & Dharma Talk with SIM Founding Teacher Dennis Warren \nJoin online meeting: https://us02web.zoom.us/j/81917699261\nPasscode: 009649\nJoin by phone: 1-669-900-9128 ( Meeting ID: 819 1769 9261 )\nFor tips and instructions on how to use the access methods listed above\, check this news blog. \nThursday Night Talk Dana\n[give_form id=”10310″ show_title=”false” show_content=”none” display_style=”reveal”] “Generosity is the virtue that leads to peace.” – The Historical Buddha\nFor remote meetings\, please use the form above to donate by credit card or your PayPal account. Enter the amount you’d like to give and 75% of your donation will be shared with Dennis Warren. \nTopic details: This evening will be devoted to exploring the meaning and indispensable roles of “Sensory Awareness” and “Intuition” in formal meditation practice and enriching our daily life.\nFor many\, the practice of Mindfulness as described in beautiful detail in the teachings of the Historical Buddha seem rational\, logical and linear. While having a clear intellectual understanding and framework for practice is essential\, in actual application we open our experience to the vast and multi-dimensional world of direct experience through Sensory Awareness and Intuition. We go far beyond the limited potential of language\, concept and thought when we move in the direction of becoming fully human through the cultivation and integration of these experiences in our practice and life.\nThe importance of this examination is focused by our reaction to\, and relationship with\, the current international health crisis. It must be clear to all of us that logical and rational problem solving\, by itself\, will not be enough for each of us to get through this situation with a sense of wholeness\, healing and meaning.\nIf you have time\, it might be helpful to listen to Dennis’ last talk on March 26. The discussion on this Thursday will be an extension of the themes in his prior talk.\nWe’ll examine these issues and more on this Thursday evening.
