Dharma Book Club

7/6/2011

2 Comments

 
DharmaBooks is a dharma study group that meets weekly to practice through meditation, reading together and discussing books relevant to our practice and a deepening understanding of our spiritual paths.
The DharmaBookclub will meet weekly on Wednesday evenings at 7:30 at 40 Kennedy Street.
EVERYONE IS WELCOME.  We will share the book and the reading.  No one needs to have the book in advance, and there is no homework.
We will begin studying  Chapter 1: "The Power of the Sacred Forest" of Thich Nhat Hanh's book: Joyfully Together: The Art of Building a Harmonious Community

Thich Nhat Hanh

Parallax Press, 2003 - 109 pages

In "Joyfully Together, Thich Nhat Hanh explores the spiritual, emotional, and practical aspects of developing a community for life. He stresses the importance of communication in all our relationships as the basis for resolving difficulties and maintaining an atmosphere of harmony in sanghas, families, and in our daily encounters.

 
The  format for the practice: 
20 minute meditation ( bring a cushion or bench if you will need one)
round robin reading( and deep listening) from the book
dharma discussion and  tea
 
May the merit of this practice benefit all beings and bring peace.
Namaste.
Maggy
