September 12-13, 2020 Virtual Retreat With Brian Lesage
"Moving into Being Moved  "

Live via Zoom
We are born with the capacity for an embodied compassion. This capacity can be nurtured so that it blossoms both in our formal meditation and in our day-to-day lives and we can cultivate a capacity for compassion that is neither disconnected nor overwhelming.  

 In this weekend retreat, we will be exploring the conditions that support the unfolding of compassion in a step-by-step manner.  This will be a mostly silent retreat with guided meditations and time for questions and response each day.  

The retreat will be from 9:00 to 5:00 on Saturday and 9:00 to 4:00 on Sunday and will be held live via Zoom.

This retreat is designed for beginners and experienced practitioners.

COST: ​​ ​​No ​​Cost ​​Retreat ​​- ​​Donations ​​to ​​the ​​teacher ​​are ​​gratefully ​​accepted. ​​Participants ​​will ​​have ​​the ​​opportunity ​​to ​​offer ​​dana ​​(donations) ​​to ​​the ​​teacher ​​​​at ​​retreat’s ​​end. ​The ​​teacher ​​will ​​receive ​​no ​​other ​​financial ​​compensation.

Space ​​is ​​limited, ​​so ​​please ​​register ​​early. ​​ ​​

In this 5-week online course, we will learn sitting, walking and other meditation practices to help us be more mindful in everyday life. When we do meditation, we can see more clearly our habits, and a way to free ourselves from that which doesn't serve us or the world. Each class will include short meditation sessions, a Question & Answer period, and homework for the week.

Donation
Instead of paying rent for the Sangha House we were once again able to make a donation to a local nonprofit.  The July recipient was NAMI Chaffee County.  Once again we thank everyone for their continuing financial support of our sangha.  Thanks to you we are able to keep the generosity stream flowing!
Poem
Gregory Orr: Untitled ["Grief will come to you"]

Grief will come to you.
Grip and cling all you want,
It makes no difference.

Catastrophe? It's just waiting to happen.
Loss? You can be certain of it.

Flow and swirl of the world.
Carried along as if by a dark current.

All you can do is keep swimming;
All you can do is keep singing.

 
May your continuing practice be of benefit to all beings everywhere,
Our deepest blessings and gratitude,
Your Salida Sangha board
