Loving-Kindness Meditation with Bhante Sujatha Supporting the Welfare of Pregnant Women A Fundraiser for Bhante Sujatha's Annual Mother’s Program in Sri Lanka For more than 20 years Bhante Sujatha has been focusing his energy toward the support of pregnant mothers. Originally inspired to undertake this service in honor of his teacher, Bhante Sujatha has expanded this project which began with baby hats and small parcels for expecting mothers, and developed into an annual day long program of meditation, gift baskets full of vital necessities for newborns to over 300 women, and donations of incubators, baby warmers, and even an ultrasound scanner to general hospitals around Sri Lanka! Bhante Sujatha believes that mothers are the first teacher a child will have, and even in the womb, the mother can deliver good health and mindful loving-kindness to the baby who will soon join this world. Like the mothers who love us, we must love these mothers, and give them the deepest respect and love. He reminds us that the Buddha had a mother, you have a mother, and we share this earth as our common mother. In this workshop Bhante Sujatha will introduce the practice of loving-kindness and guide a brief meditation through this simple to learn, but difficult to master, technique. When we practice loving-kindness we are giving a unique and powerful gift to the whole world… It's through our self-love that we love the whole world. When practiced with sincerity and commitment, this mediation can alter your brain and change the way you see the whole world. When you change the way you see the world, the world changes. Join Bhante Sujatha at the home of Mary Landau for this special program to nurture your own heart, and help to warm the hearts of mothers and their babies on the other side of the world. - Suggested Donation $30 - Advance registration is appreciated.
