Good afternoon!
We have completed (for now….) our practice period on Diversity in the context of Dharma. We have studied, read and practiced with diversity of race, culture, ethnicity, socio-economic conditions, species – as well as with the conditions of privilege and oppression that arise in our lives. We have had opportunities to listen deeply to one another’s unique expression, both in panels and Dharma sharing.
In June, we will flow into the practice period of looking deeply and practicing with anger and irritation. We will begin with a full Recitation Ceremony of the Five Mindfulness trainings tomorrow, the first Thursday in June.
Unfortunately, in May, we experienced causes and conditions that were not able to support our Day of Mindfulness. The next Day of Mindfulness will be on July 9.
NOTE: July 21-24, Mountain Lamp community is offering a Family Camp-out Retreat. Please got to http://www.mountainlamp.org/forms/2016-07%20Family%20Campout.pdf for more information.
