Thursday Evening Practice

This is a hybrid event: in person at our Hospital Drive location, and also on Zoom at our regular Zoom link (click here). We begin at 7:30 and sit together for 40 minutes. After this Gareth will offer a talk about a segment of source material (e.g. a sutta/ sutra, or extract, or a practice text), then open up for questions, reflections and discussion.

This is open to all and no prior knowledge of the source texts - or even of Buddhism! - is required.

Schedule

Beginning on July 20th we will spend a week or two on each of a wide range of Buddhist suttas, verses, and passages that Gareth uses in his own practice, with the aspiration to memorize. A pdf with all of these texts can be reviewed and downloaded here. We'll spend a week exploring each, perhaps a couple of weeks for the more intense and denser texts. These talks are all self-contained and stand independently, so it works really well to drop in on something that looks interesting. The complete series will run for several months, since there are a large number of passages.
