[Downtown Dharma Sangha Listserv] Book Club - Rob Burbea

Hello fellow sangha members & friends,

As most of you know, each month we pick a book or piece of content to read together and discuss. This month, we will be *listening* to a series of Dharma Talks by Rob Burbea. Rob passed away from pancreatic cancer in 2020, and is beloved by many. He has had a huge impact on my own path, so I'm excited to share his teaching and discuss with y'all. If you'd like to read a little bit about Rob, here is a blogpost on his life and teachings. 

We will be listening to the following two talks for our discussion:

Rob Burbea's teaching style is soulful and creative, so I encourage an openness and curiosity as you listen.

If you find you have more time, and you'd like to listen to more, then the following three talks are the subsequent talks in the series. Our discussion will center on the first two talks, but I wanted to provide some additional listening in case you are really flowing with Rob's Dharma and want to continue listening.
I do not believe we have picked a date yet for our discussion and meeting. Roman has kindly volunteered his apartment to host the in-person gathering, but we will also have a Zoom option for folks like me who will be calling in remotely.

Roman, do you have a preference for what date we have the discussion? I would like to propose Saturday, July 23rd for the date. Please reply to this thread and let us know if that works Roman :)

Blessings to you all for the Summer Solstice!!!

Warmly,
BI

P.S. Someone recently reminded me we're approaching our *3 year anniversary* for book club 👏💥💓
