Community Practice - Meditation and Council
Shining Bright Lotus Meditation Society
Tuesday 7:30 pm - 9:00 pm ET (New York)
Online on Zoom
Buddhist meditation offers us a gateway to greater inner peace. Learning to focus our attention inside, allows for the busy-ness of the mind to fall away, nurturing tranquility and equanimity. Over time, this allows us to change our way of being with painful emotions and suffering through acceptance and compassion. Loving kindness arises naturally. Learning to bring this experience into our daily life fosters wisdom and compassion.
Join us for our weekly community meditation. We begin each session with a check-in. Ekai Joel Kreisberg will lead us in a guided meditation guided by followed a teaching, discussion and question and response.
The first meeting of each month will include a round of council. Council is a community practice of speaking and listening from the heart. Council is a community based listening practice devoted to deepen the connections with members of the sangha.
