SUMMARY:Online: The House We Live In - Virtue\, Wisdom\, and Pluralism
DESCRIPTION:Online: The House We Live In – Virtue\, Wisdom\, and Pluralism \n \nwith Seth Zuihō Segall\n \nThursday\, March 2nd\, 2023 | 7:00pm – 9:00pm ET\n \n\n \nOur society is suffering from economic inequality; a continuing legacy of racism\, sexism\, and homo- and trans-phobia; growing anxiety and depression in the young and deaths of despair among the middle aged; increasing political and affective polarization; an overvaluation of wealth\, popularity\, and fame; and a failure to adequately address climate change. While liberalism\, pluralism\, and democracy are under sustained attack from right-wing forces\, liberal democracies are failing to cultivate and transmit the values\, wisdom\, and virtues that promote individual and collective flourishing. \nOur problem is not a lack of possible solutions\, but a lack of a consensus on what makes lives meaningful and worthwhile. This is an ethical question that calls for a renewed understanding of human flourishing and the wisdom and virtues that make it possible.  \nIn this talk\, Zen Buddhist priest and clinical psychologist Seth Zuihō Segall explores the commonalities between Buddhist\, Confucian\, and Aristotelean approaches to virtue and wisdom. We will examine the moral and intellectual virtues that promote flourishing\, the diversity of ways in which we flourish\, and the factors all flourishing lives share. Finally\, we will address the problem of talking to each other across political and cultural divides\, affirming the necessity of discovering ways to live together despite seemingly incommensurable differences. \nRegistration:\nPlease register at the highest level that your generosity offers.\nExplanations of levels follow below.\nIf you are registering via a mobile device such as a phone or tablet\, you can scroll right and left and up and down within the below form if it is partially obscured or cut off.\nCLICK HERE to open the registration form in a new browser window.\nPlease contact registration@nyimc.org if you need assistance. \n \nRegistration Fees include Teacher Support\nNew York Insight Meditation Center has streamlined the registration fee levels. Members of our Circle of Friends are eligible to receive 20% off of the Sustaining Rate via a code provided in the email confirming membership\, which you can enter after clicking the Sustaining Level registration. \n*Benefactor Level: Supports NYI’s ability to offer the Subsidized Base. \n**Sustaining Level: This level reflects the actual costs to support this program.

SUMMARY:Postponed: Developing the Five Spiritual Faculties
DESCRIPTION:Postponed: Developing the Five Spiritual Faculties \n \nwith Walt Opie\n \nThursday\, March 16th\, 2023 | 7:00pm – 9:00pm ET \nDue to unforeseen circumstances\, the program has been postponed.\n \n\n \nIn Buddhist teachings there are many lists\, including an important one known as the Five Spiritual Faculties\, which includes: faith (confidence)\, effort\, mindfulness\, concentration\, and wisdom (discernment).  \nEach of these are inherent capacities we can cultivate and develop in our own practice\, and they all work together. Without the faith faculty\, we won’t take the risk to apply ourselves to the practice. Without putting in sincere effort\, we can’t really progress on the path.  \nWithout mindfulness\, we won’t learn from our efforts because we won’t fully comprehend what’s really happening. Without concentration\, we won’t have the stability of mind required to see deeply into things. And without wisdom\, we won’t know how to apply what we’re learning along the way. \nJoin us for an evening discussion with visiting Insight Meditiation Teacher Walt Opie to explore how we can intergrate these important qualities in our own lives.   \nRegistration:\nPlease register at the highest level that your generosity offers.\nExplanations of levels follow below.\nIf you are registering via a mobile device such as a phone or tablet\, you can scroll right and left and up and down within the below form if it is partially obscured or cut off.\nCLICK HERE to open the registration form in a new browser window.\nPlease contact registration@nyimc.org if you need assistance. \n \nRegistration Fees include Teacher Support\nNew York Insight Meditation Center has streamlined the registration fee levels.
