Rich completed online courses with Steve on the Abhidhamma (the Buddhist psychology) and the Manual of Insight.

His interest in the environment led him to the One Small Planet training with Kerry Nelson and the Ecosattva training with One Earth Sangha. In 2018, he completed a 10-month Dhamma Awareness Training with Steve Armstrong and Kamala Masters called Touching the Earth. In 2019, he completed Meg Gawler’s 8-month course Preparing the Ground for Samadhi.

11/19/2020 “Exploring Equanimity” with Dennis Warren
Audio DharmaOK, The Election is Over – The Fantasy Of A Magic Answer To All Our Problems is Dead – What Do We Do Now?
It’s pretty clear now that the world we live in has changed. This is hard to deny even for those of us who are really good at denial. For many, it is a world filled with confusion, uncertainty, resistance, anxiety and fear for the future – the future of our families, our country, the world.
How to deal with this reality in a way that allows us to experience a sense of ease, purposefulness, empoweredness, togetherness and kindness may not at first be clear.
During this evening we’ll explore the meaning of “equanimity” as a working life premise, as an operational reality, as a powerful tool in the face of our current challenges, sorrows and joys.
