Description

Just Sit Raleigh Dharma is a Sangha based in the NC Raleigh-Durham Triangle. We currently meet Monthly for a Dharma talk and guided meditation. The next two classes will be a deeper dive into the Buddha’s Noble Eightfold Path. In March’s talk explored the first four aspects. Wise View and Understanding, Wise Intention, Wise Speech and Wise Action. April’s talk will be on the second half of the Noble Eightfold Path. This includes Wise Livelihood, Wise Effort, Wise Mindfulness and Wise Concentration. In May we start a Four part series on the Four Foundations of Mindfulness, also known as the Satipatthana Sutta. Each month we will explore together the original teachings from the Sutta and then practice the instructions the Buddha gave to us. This is an indepth meditation practice that is as good for begininers as it for seasoned practictioners. My intention is to offer these teachings in an easy to understand style, not a school lecture, but an offering with practical suggestions for putting these powerful teachings into action in one’s life and heart. The talk is usually about an hour and after a short break I offer a 30 minute guided meditation. Time for questions at the end of the class is always available. This talk is suitable for beginners and seasoned practioners alike. All are welcome, class always by donation.
