Now Online Only: Finding a Refuge in the Body
with Peter Doobinin
Sunday, March 29th, 2020 | 10:00am – 1:00pm EST
Due to COVID-19, this program will now be offered online only. Those who already registered for the in-person program will automatically be transferred to this online program. All registrants will be emailed the link to the online program a few days prior to the program.
“Breath is the bridge which connects life to consciousness, which unites your body to your thoughts.” ― Thich Nhat Hanh
One of the most important aspects of the Buddha’s teachings is developing the ability to find refuge. In a world that is always changing and often presents difficulty, it is essential that we have this skill if we’re to know true happiness in our lives. There are various ways that, as dharma students, we seek refuge. Ultimately, though, we have to learn to find refuge within, in the body. In this online program, we’ll learn how to cultivate this critical skill. The class will include teaching, instruction, practice, and discussion. All are welcome to attend.
