Continues Until:
Location:	115 S Colorado Street, Optional
Details:	Half-Day Retreat hosted at the Here and Now Center! June 22nd – Online and In Person We are grateful to have the opportunity to gather monthly for these precious teaching. This month’s topic is very timely – Giving Peace a Chance, chapter 20 of The Heroic Heart, a commentary on the Thirty-Seven Practices of a Bodhisattva, by Jetsunma Tenzin Palmo. These are truly precious and essential teachings for our current times. “Just as the archetypal hero possesses the heart to face trials and tribulations for the sake of helping others, the bodhisattva has a remarkable resolve to free others from suffering so that all may achieve true happiness and awakening. Through each challenge, the Buddhist hero of compassion develops rich inner qualities that empower them to be of true benefit to others. In The Heroic Heart, Jetsunma Tenzin Palmo, an esteemed spiritual teacher with a lifetime of experience, illuminates the heart of Mahayana Buddhism—bodhichitta—describing it as “the selfless expression of boundless compassion.” Jetsunma uses as a touchstone the famous Tibetan Buddhist text The Thirty-Seven Verses on the Practice of a Bodhisattva. Here, she reveals how to become such a compassionate hero, the bodhisattva in training, and helps us to face the uncertain tides of the world, however joyful or dangerous, with a deep wish to find meaning and uncover the ultimate heart of wisdom and compassion.” Each month our spiritual director, John Bruna, facilitates meditation, study, and discussion on one of the topics from this precious text. This retreat will be both in person, at the Here and Now Center, and online. The retreat will consist of three sessions that are approximately fifty minutes long with a short break in between sessions. The retreat is offered on a free-will donation basis. All donations will go to the Way of Compassion Foundation. To register go to: https://wocdc.org/giving-peace-a-chance/ Click here for the event website
