SUMMARY:Calm Abiding Sunday with Lama Yeshe
DESCRIPTION:Join us for a guided Calm Abiding Meditation followed by a special teaching with Lama Yeshe. \nThis Sunday’s teaching… \nThe recent election has brought about some large changes in our national society. For many in the U.S.\, the current times are full of frightening portents\, fearful possibilities. \nEight years ago\, numerous aspects of society were changed or threatened as well. At that time\, strong voices in the KSC sangha expressed concern: How could we as Buddhists face an unimagined future and find a way to do so with courage and insight? \nFollowing the recent election\, there have been only muted voices of concern expressed in the sangha. Are we that much more experienced? Are we hardened? Do we already have a plan for the coming years in our society? Or are we choosing not to think about it? \nWhen we see a challenging time approaching\, It seems important to provide a time for the community to consider our commitments to the wider society – both as humans\, and as Buddhists. This Sunday’s Calm Abiding meditation and teaching will explore the meditation and principles that can support and encourage us in a difficult time. \nCalm Abiding Meditation \nThis 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.” From Meditation for Beginners\, by Bokar Rinpoche \nPlease see our calendar for upcoming dates: kscashland.org \nPlease contact the office to receive our monthly emails and the Zoom link for this practice: OFFICE@KSCASHLAND.ORG

SUMMARY:Sunday Service: The Space Between: Peace\, Compromise\, and the Promise of Liberation
DESCRIPTION:Sunday\, December 8th\, is the second Sunday of Advent. Advent invites us into a season of waiting\, reflection\, and hope—a time when peace feels both distant and near. Peace in Hebrew is “shalom”; which holds undertones of both completeness and wellbeing. Yet\, peace often asks something difficult of us: compromise. How do we hold the tension between standing firm in our values and making room for connection and understanding\, especially in a time when the lives and livelihoods of many vulnerable beloveds are threatened? In community\, compromise and peace-building are not signs of weakness but acts of faith — steps toward deeper connection and shared purpose. Through the lens of Unitarian Universalist values\, we’ll explore how the work of peace\, rooted in compassion and collaboration\, creates the foundation for true liberation and strengthens the bonds of community that hold us together. Lay by Eli Poore\, intern minister. \nMonthly Theme: Compromise. \n“My humanity is bound up in yours\, for we can only be human together.” – Desmond Tutu \nAttend in person or watch live or recorded on our YouTube channel: https://www.youtube.com/@roguevalleyunitarianuniver8871

SUMMARY:Spice Up Your Space: Make Your Own Orange Pomander
DESCRIPTION:Join us to make a fragrant and festive orange pomander\, which will be a delightful addition to your home! \nThe word “pomander” comes from the French “pomme d’ambre\,” meaning “apple of amber.” Pomanders have been used throughout history to ward off bad smells (and supposedly\, all manner of bad things)\, but today they are often created to add a pleasant clove and citrus aroma in the home\, especially during the winter. All supplies will be provided for this simple\, yet lovely craft.
