[Downtown Dharma Sangha Listserv] FYI: IMCW affinity groups

Hi all,

Wanted to let you know that in addition to our Downtown Dharma community, IMCW has some great affinity groups you can join, including BIPOC, API, Latinx, disabilities/Deafness, chronic illness, LGBTQIA+, seniors, vegans, young adults, families, and women.

More info here: https://imcw.org/communities/shared-experience-sanghas/

Personally I've been involved with the LGBTQIA+ sangha for years and would be happy to talk about that one with anyone who's interested!

With metta,

Ava

[Downtown Dharma Sangha Listserv] Can you host reading group in Dec?

Hi all,

As the reading group organizer, I've been in touch with some of you about logistics. Thanks to those who've talked to me so far.

I am now looking for a host, centrally located in DC, who can host 15+ people, and whose place is available Fri 12/13 or Sat 12/14. This will be for a discussion facilitated by Jackie and Patrick.

If you can do this, please reply to me individually.

After getting this one arranged, I'll schedule more sessions in the fall, so watch this space!

Thanks!

Ava

[Downtown Dharma Sangha Listserv] Downtown Dharma: Insight Dialogue Practice This Sunday

Dear Friends,

Vince Lampone and I will be co-facilitating an Insight Dialogue session this Sunday, and we hope you can join us. We are going to be exploring how giving and receiving generosity from one another helps to reduce our suffering and reminds us that we are all interconnected.

No prior Insight Dialogue experience is necessary, just your presence and your openness to listening closely and speaking with intention with a practice partner. In case this is your first time encountering Insight Dialogue practice, please expect some participatory conversation as we play with the six ID guidelines of: pause; relax; open; attune to emergence; listen deeply; and speak deeply.

We'll start with a short silent guided meditation, after which we'll break into dyads or triads for relational practice.

We hope to see you there—online or in person!

• In-person: Sunday, September 15th, 7-8:30pm @ Yoga District — 1910 14th Street NW, 3rd Floor, Washington, DC (please arrive 5-10 minutes early)

• Online via Zoom: zoom.us/j/466237117?pwd=cGxHaTJlTVhBdldVSk8weDZuSW5udz0

Warmly,

Maura Flanagan
