Practicing for the Welfare of All - Public Talk (MSP-O-012419)

In the Tergar tradition, whether following Joy of Living or Path of Liberation, we normally begin our practice with some form of aspiration that opens our heart to the wish that others can benefit from the time we spend with our meditation.  When our intention is wide as the whole world it can be a great motivator.  Practically speaking, however, this all-encompassing intention is not so easy, as we regularly face people and situations that we don’t like.  During this evening we will talk about the beauty of our aspirations and how they don’t need to be abandoned when we face difficulties.  We will also lean into the aspiration and look more closely at the places where we might feel challenged, and ways to move beyond the challenges.

These evenings include a period of meditation, a time to share informally with the community, a short talk by Instructor Myoshin Kelley and a period of open discussion on how we are working with these aspects of our lives. The evening is open to all, beginners and experienced meditators alike, and is a great opportunity for us to delve deeper as a community into the richness of bringing meditation into our everyday lives.

This public talk is freely offered by the Tergar community. We are deeply grateful to our community members, who generously offer their time, energy, and financial contributions to make this possible.

Registration is not required, but appreciated for planning purposes.
