    This month:
    "How to be an Imperfect Meditator" with Charlie Trageser

     

    Join our monthly gathering on the second Sunday of each month, bringing together our whole community. We gather for practice, teaching and discussion - and the opportunity to share a potluck lunch and socialize together.

    Come and sit for all, or part of the morning, enjoy a dharma talk or reading led by community teachers from all generations of practice.  We are excited to bring together the entire Boston community with this new monthly program.

     

    Thich Nhat Hahn: “The Next Buddha May Be a Sangha”. 

    “We all need love. Without enough love, we may not be able to survive, as individuals and as a planet. It is said that the next Buddha will be named "Maitreya," the Buddha of Love. I believe that Maitreya might not take the form of an individual, but as a community showing us the way of love and compassion.”
