SUMMARY:Calm Abiding Sunday - Meditation & Teaching with Lama Pema
DESCRIPTION:Join Lama Pema for a guided Calm Abiding Meditation\, followed by a tea break and teaching. All are welcome. One Sunday each month\, from 9:00 to 11:30 am. \nIn 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 contact the office to receive our monthly emails and the Zoom link for this practice: OFFICE@KSCASHLAND.ORG

SUMMARY:Sunday Service: Unleashing Your Creative Voice: The Sacred Act of Creation
DESCRIPTION:Through personal stories of music and self-discovery\, let’s explore how society’s messages about creativity and talent can stifle our natural impulse for self-expression. Together we’ll examine how reclaiming our creative voice—whether through music\, art\, or community-building—is not just an act of personal growth\, but a sacred practice that connects us to our shared humanity.\nLay Speaker: Harley Eblen \nMonthly Theme: Anger \n“Every child is an artist. The problem is how to remain an artist once we grow up.” – Pablo Picasso \nAttend in person or watch live or recorded on our YouTube channel: https://www.youtube.com/@roguevalleyunitarianuniver8871

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
