SUMMARY:(Remote) Sit & Dharma Talk - Rich Howard - Nothing or No Thing?
DESCRIPTION:Nothing or No Thing? Reframing our Experience\nSit & Dharma Talk with SIM Community Teacher Rich Howard \nJoin online meeting: https://zoom.us/j/97400928129\nPasscode: 539647\nJoin by phone: 1-669-900-6833 ( Meeting ID: 974 0092 8129 )\nFor tips and instructions to join the meeting\, check this news blog. \nThursday Night Talk Dana\n[give_form id=”10304″ 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 Rich Howard. \nTopic details:\nThe mind tends to solidify experience and to grasp for security in comfort\, familiarity\, and habitual patterns. This is natural\, a long-established pattern to help negotiate a complex world in the face of threats and unknowns. Even our language reinforces this dependence on solid objects versus processes\, using nouns to translate words that are verbs in Pali\, the original language of the early Buddhist texts. This talk will expand on the theme of investigating the concept of “self” that all three SIM faculty explored in February. Be prepared to share insights you may have received in working with this area of practice.
