Fall 2019 Practice Period

Sunday, September 15  – Sunday, November 17

We're in week four of our Fall 2019 Practice Period. Last Sunday, Norman gave a talk at our All-Day Sit on The Perfection of Ethics. On Wednesday, at seminar, the Shuso spoke on the third perfection, The Perfection of Patience. He described practicing patience as a kind of "counter culture" — running counter to our culture of speed. Try practicing patience, he suggests, with the people you encounter in the course of your day by really seeing and acknowledging them. Notice if you feel impatient at times. And remember to talk with your practice partner.

The World Could Be Otherwise: Imagination and the Bodhisattva Path

Norman's new book, The World Could be Otherwise, is available.
