[Downtown Dharma Sangha Listserv] Radical Receptivity: Listening as a Sacred Act

Dear friends,

This Sunday, we'll explore the Insight Dialogue guideline Listen Deeply. Michele Bledsoe, a teacher with the Center for Mindful Living, will offer the dharma reflection, and I'll guide our relational practice.

To be received with full attention—free from judgment or agenda—is a rare and sacred experience. Fortunately, offering this kind of presence is something we can cultivate. We'll orient towards listening with the whole body—not to get it "right," but to discover what's possible when we meet each other with presence.

The evening will include a guided meditation, brief dharma talk, and Insight Dialogue practice in pairs.

No prior experience is necessary—just a spirit of kindness and curiosity!

With love,
Vince
