Thank you :
You are now registered for Mindfulness In Healing Sangha. We will meet again on Zoom next Wednesday. Here’s the link: Meeting Id: 734777397. In the meantime, you may enjoy looking into some of my guided meditations and books.
Dana
“Dana (pronounced “daa-nuh”) is the Pali word for giving. Dana is the first perfection of the heart (parami), and the foundation of Buddhist practice, based in the understanding that giving opens the heart, creates connection to others, and teaches letting go.
“According to the Buddha, generosity and sharing of resources is a central pillar of spiritual life, the foundation of wholesome kamma—action that bears fruit in our lives and the lives of others. Dating back to the Buddha and the first monastic practitioners, those who preserve and offer the teachings have always lived in interdependence with the community around them. Buddhist monks and nuns rely completely on the generosity of lay people for support in continuing their teaching and spiritual life.” – Spirit Rock
These teachings are offered in the spirit of generosity. They are offered freely and donations are gratefully accepted. By offering dana, you show gratitude, support the teacher and the Thich Nhat Hanh Foundation in honor of his recent passing.
Support will take place both in person and online via zoom or other services.
