The afternoon
2:30–3:30 Settling in the heart. An hour of simple chanting, reflection, and sitting, in the bhakti and Buddhist traditions shared by Ram Dass, Neem Karoli Baba, and other teachers and lineages. The heart of our practice encompasses mindful awareness, lovingkindness, and compassion.
3:30–4:30 Living here and now. Time to connect, ask questions, chat and reflect on the light of teachings as they relate to the world and our lives as they are, on this beleaguered but precious and beautiful Earth.
Come for the whole afternoon, or at 2:30 just for the practice period, or 3:30 for tea and conversation. Questions? Please contact us.
