    Santikaro: Weathering Life's Storms

    (Common Ground Meditation Center) The recent election and its aftermath have been deeply troubling for many us. We struggle to make sense of them, find our grounding, and respond skilfully. Similarly, serious illness, death of loved ones, financial stresses, family conflict, and climate disruption create storms externally and internally. Buddha-Dhamma and the fruits of its practice offer invaluable resources for weathering these storms as they blow through us. This talk will summarize practical strategies for living with the inevitable storms of life and death.

    Santikaro: Community Conversation: Socially Engaged Practice, Towards Dhamma-Centered Living

    (Common Ground Meditation Center) Much of our lives and many social interactions are ego-centric. In socially engaged buddhism we explore the boundaries where self & other and individual & group can relax. This opens us to perspectives that are Dhamma and eco-centric, with more profound ethics than the merely personal.
