Dear friends,
Please join me this Sunday, November 18, from 6:00 pm to 7:30 in the Community Room at the Potter's House (1658 Columbia Rd NW) to meditate and explore the Buddhist concept of anatta, or the absence of an abiding self, and to talk about what it's like to get together (or not get together) with family over the holidays.
Are you ready for Thanksgiving? Do you ever feel like you need to prepare yourself for seeing certain relatives? We'll talk about the ways people "push our buttons" and trigger our narratives, and explore how a concept as esoteric as anatta might be helpful. For folks who don't feel comfortable sharing confidentially in a small-group setting, there will be an alternative activity (with pens and markers) available.
Chairs are available. If you'd like to bring your own sitting gear, please do. And if you'd like to help set up, please arrive ten to fifteen minutes early. This meeting space is wheelchair accessible.
Looking forward to seeing you!
