Sitting Groups

Dear Ones,

Looking forward to seeing everyone IN PERSON on Monday, December 5th from 7-8:45 PM at OM Laguna Beach, located (by Pavilions) in Boat Canyon Shopping Center at 610 N. Coast Highway in Laguna Beach for our in-person October Sit.  There is a parking lot with an elevator for those who need it.

We are excited to share our time and presence with each other in the beautiful refuge of OM's lovely space...holding space for ourselves, each other, and all that arises and passes.  

As we enter these shorter days, we will be exploring and practicing the wise qualities of the heart, from my book: Ten Ways to Awaken the Wise Heart.  In this month's Sangha, we will be exploring and practicing the quality of Metta/ Loving Kindness.  Kindness is essential for meditation to work because if we're always fighting with ourselves or our situation in life, we are not accepting what is HERE. Essentially, the quality of loving kindness has little to do with liking someone or approving of them, but the truthfulness that we are all inter-connected. 

There are no greater treasures than what is found in your own radiant heart and especially NOW, we need to find refuge in beauty and compassion wherever and whenever we can!  Our Sangha helps us all to find and share this collective, compassionate, and courageous presence that fuels the world...May it be so.  Looking forward to seeing you on Monday.

love, karen

Oh, Nobly Born, you who are the son or daughter of the Buddha,
Remember who you are in these times of change.
Remember the Buddha who has taken birth in your own form.
Step out of the small self, out of the body of fear,
And rest in generosity and kindness of heart.
-Taken from the Bardo Thodol
