[Downtown Dharma Listserve] Re: Open places to meditate?

Has anyone tried meditating while being just where they are?

Thanks!

Good question: I'd look into the Center for Mindful Living in Tenleytown, the Washington Buddhist Vihara in upper northwest (16th St), and a variety of temples in the surrounding suburbs. There's a beautiful Thai Buddhist temple on Layhill Road in Silver Spring - they might be fairly open to people wanting to come in to meditate, but you'd probably want to call them. Let me know what you find!

Does anyone know of any temple or some such place where you can go to meditate whenever you want? I'm looking to go sometime this later afternoon or early evening with a friend. I've been googling/calling around to temples in the area but not much luck.

Thanks!

[Downtown Dharma Listserve] Join Hugh Byrne's new "Mindful Politics" series + room sublet June-July

Hello friends,

One of our beloved All Souls teachers, Hugh Byrne, is going to lead a discussion and meditation series at the Lamont Dharma house. See below for more details. We hope you can make it!

Also, with folks scattering to Barre and such for long term retreats, we've got a room sublet opening in our house this summer. Check it out if you or someone you know coming to town might be interested.

I'm happy to answer any questions on either of these things, just drop me a line!

Warm wishes,

Megan

Coming Up at the Lamont Dharma House...

"Mindful Politics: Engaging Wisely and Compassionately in Challenging Times"
A Conversation and Meditation Series with IMCW Guiding Teacher Hugh Byrne
Beginning Thursday, June 2, 7:30-9:00 pm

How do we engage wisely and kindly with the challenging emotions, mind states, views, and opinions churned up in the current political and electoral environment?

Join IMCW guiding teacher Hugh Byrne from June to November at the Lamont Dharma House for a monthly conversation series that will aim to help us cultivate equanimity and wise engagement in the lead up to the general elections.

This meditation and discussion series will meet monthly beginning on Thursday, June 2, with Sundays adjacent to the IMCW All Souls sit after that. For further details on the series and schedule, check out our website for more info.

[Downtown Dharma Listserve] Checking in

Because of my work schedule, I have not been able to come to the Sunday night sangha for the past 4 to 6 weeks, and I miss it! I have been reading about how important it is to practice in a sangha. I hope I can start coming again regularly in the next week or 2 and be there most of the summer. If there have been any announcements of interest to all, I hope they will be posted here. Last hope: that members will not find this posting to be too personal a plea. Metta to all, Joan
