SUMMARY:In-Person and Online: Love Like a Buddha
DESCRIPTION:In-Person and Online: Love Like a Buddha\n \nwith Kimberly Brown\n \nThursday\, March 7th\, 2024 | 6:30pm – 8:30pm ET\n \nIn-Person Location: Balance Arts Center at 151 W 30th St 3rd floor\n \n\n \nMost of us are taught only to love and care for our family and friends\, but not to necessarily love or even pay attention to ourselves\, strangers\, difficult people\, and so many other living creatures. \nBut inequities\, abuse\, and exploitation can result from loving unequally and selectively\, picking and choosing who deserves it and who doesn’t. That’s why the Buddha encouraged us to love indiscriminately and boundlessly—because he understood that love is a powerful force for good. \nJoin us for a night of community where we’ll learn how love can support personal fulfillment\, contribute to a positive and equitable society\, and create strong and lasting social bonds. We’ll discover how to recognize our inherent lovingness and to develop it with traditional practices of lovingkindness and insight meditation. \nJoin author and teacher Kimberly Brown for this special evening of discussion\, Q&A\, and guided meditation. No experience is necessary. Beginners and experienced meditators are welcome. \n \nIn-Person Registration:\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 \nOnline Registration:\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.
