Talk topic to be announced
Sit & Dharma Talk with Visiting Teacher Neesha Patel.

We are fortunate to have NEESHA PATEL, PhD returning to SIM this evening.

NEESHA PATEL, PhD is deeply grateful for the liberative teachings of the Buddha. She has been fortunate to have practiced in both Asia and the US. Her practice has been influenced by the guidance of many wonderful teachers including Sayadaw U Tejaniya and Thai Forest Tradition teachers. She teaches mindfulness meditation at UC Davis and is a participant in the 2017-2021 Insight Meditation Society Teacher Training Program.

Sacramento 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.

We’re sorry to announce that Dennis Warren will be unavailable November 21, 2019. SIM has cancelled the Introduction to Meditation class scheduled for that evening and the November 21st dharma talk will be presented by Neesha Patel instead.

Thank you for your understanding.
