TUESDAYS 7:00 AM - 7:35 AM: MEDITATION AND SETTING DAILY INTENTION (ZOOM ONLY) The bell will sound promptly at 7 a.m. for a 25 minute meditation period. At the end of the sit we will hear a verse from Gil Fronsdal's translation of the Dhammapada. The Dhammapada is a compilation in verse form of central early teachings of the Buddha, which Dharma teacher Jack Kornfield has described as "the most beloved of all Buddhist texts, both poetic and profound." Following the close of meditation, those who wish can briefly share an intention for the day, perhaps guided by the Dhammapada verse. Anyone is welcome to sign off after the end of the 25 minute meditation period. You do not need to purchase the book to participate.

WEDNESDAYS 7:00 PM - 8:15 PM: MEDITATION AND DISCUSSION (ZOOM ONLY)
Join Wednesday nights for meditation and Dharma discussion. The format is 30 minutes of meditation with the remaining time dedicated to Dharma study and discussion. The Weds night sangha currently is participating in the email-based program Seeing White on MV. This program is based on Scene on Radio’s podcast, Season 2: Seeing White and investigates and connects whiteness and structural racism in the U.S. to Island history, current events, and our lives. Our study/practice is rooted in the engaged eight-fold path developed by Dharma teacher Rev. Liên Shutt in Home is Here. Everyone is welcome. If you are new to meditation or are not familiar with the materials, do not let that stop you from participating. Your presence is valued.
