Sunday, May 8

Dear Sangha,

Our practice is to come home to ourselves, to our breathing, our bodies, our feelings, our imagination, thoughts, all our mental activities and all that we experience, to release tension and to open to the full spectrum of ourselves and the world we are, and in the process to gain insight and love. In our practice we heal our suffering and open our heart minds so fully that we marry the ultimate dimension and the historical dimension, the realms of the whole and of individual realities and actions, in our consciousness. We become awake to the wholeness we already are. We come together as a Sangha, a community of practitioners, for the synergy of our collective mindfulness and to build a beloved community. This enhances our individual life and collectively we are a powerful force for healing and transformation in the world. Communion, cultivating loving, compassionate, joyful and inclusive heart minds, individual and collective, this is our practice. It is our great good fortune to have a community to do this with. I look forward to practicing with you as I facilitate this Sunday.

Smiling,

Keith
