Description

Awakening in the Midst of Life – Meditation for Inner Recognition Life doesn’t take a time out for us, even when we feel like we need it. But we have the power to take our mind out of life, and can use this ability to observe it clearly. This is the way we bring our practice off of the cushion and into the midst of life. By learning to keep our mind open and aware throughout the day, we discover the true application of mindfulness practice. In this workshop, Bhante Sujatha will guide you through techniques that help to dissolve the lines between the “beginning” and “ending” of a meditation practice, and discover that mindfulness is an ongoing process that becomes a companion in life. In this program we will learn how to measure our responses, become more adaptive, reduce conflict, and manage emotions. Remaining in the present moment keeps us open to new knowledge and experiences that we can gain from fully and respond to appropriately. Join Bhante Sujatha in this worshop to learn understand that in both good times and bad, we always have the choice to step back and see what is happening. This session is suitable for both new and seasoned practitioners and will include: • An Introduction – Awakening in the Midst of Life • A Guided Mediation • Group Discussion: Time for questions and answers Fee $40 • Advanced registration required. • Proceeds help support Bhante’s “Pregnant Mother's Program” and Incubator Project in Sri Lanka. • Choose Loving-Kindness Items and Bhante’s publications will be available for purchase on site, and Bhante will be able to for book signing following the program.
