SUMMARY:Thursday Evening Calm Abiding Meditaion
DESCRIPTION:This meditation is common to many traditions of Buddhism. In this practice\, we rest our attention on a simple meditative support\, such as the breath. Instead of following thoughts and emotions as we usually do\, we release them and maintain our connection to the support. \n“From this practice\, we can experience a stable and calm mind. We learn to maintain and return to a sense of stillness\, no matter what our outer circumstances. The mind is relaxed\, alert and aware. The results of this practice are serenity\, freedom in the face of circumstances\, and ultimately Buddhahood.” \nFrom Meditation for Beginners\, by Bokar Rinpoche. \nTo attend Calm Abiding Meditation via Zoom\, email the office at OFFICE@KSCASHLAND.ORG to join the mailing list. \n

SUMMARY:Peace Choir Invites New Members
DESCRIPTION:Studies have shown that singing in a choir builds a sense of belonging and joy\, and many individuals and organizations have learned that using music and song to raise awareness and support for positive changes can be effective and fulfilling for performers. \nIf you would like use your creative energy to sing for peace\, social justice\, and the environment\, you are invited to join the non-audition\, secular Rogue Valley Peace Choir (RVPC) as it begins its 2025-26 season in September. \nRegistration begins at 6 p.m. Thursday\, Sept. 4\, and the first rehearsal for the choir begins that evening at the First United Methodist Church\, 175 N. Main St.\, Ashland. \nRehearsals — from 6:30 to 8:30 p.m. on Thursdays — will continue through mid-May 2026. \nThis season the choir\, now in its 23rd year\, will host other peace choirs from the region for a combined choir event at Southern Oregon University in February. The RVPC choir will also perform at a variety of venues: schools\, retirement homes\, art events\, fundraisers for social causes\, and community and holiday events throughout the year with the season culminating in mid-May concerts. \nThe choir’s 75-plus members are directed by Rob Griswell-Lowry and accompanied by Dr. Mikiko Petrucelli. The choir’s mission is to promote peace\, social justice and the well-being of our planet. \n“In the turmoil of division so common in our society today\, we seek to inspire unity and dialogue using music to spread the message of peace and community\,” says Griswell-Lowry. \nSongs for the choir’s repertoire are chosen by choir members themselves to express these themes in heart-felt and thoughtful ways. Rogue Valley Peace Choir members continue to be a part of the growing movement that recognizes how pro-actively and collectively we can make a difference on many fronts: we can shed light on injustice\, we can support an end to wars\, and we can take care of our Earth and each other when we work together. \nThe upcoming season’s songs span a variety of genres\, including songs by Joni Mitchell\, Sly Stone\, Brian Tate\, Seth Houston\, and an original composition by a choir member. \nSee more about the choir and its staff at http://roguevalleypeacechoir.org.
