Anita will share from Sister Dang Nghiem's book, Healing, about how "Shining the light of awareness on our mental formations can help us learn to choose not to speak and act on the levels of liking or disliking, wanting or not wanting"... but rather through the mind of love with understanding and compassion.

Reflections on how we can use the practice in our daily lives
For those of us who were at Deer Park last weekend, either as part of the Sangha retreat or the Day of Mindfulness, I invite you to share an insight that manifested for you while at Deer Park, something that you have been able to carry with you beyond the monastery. We were deeply nourished by a Dharma Talk by Brother Phap Hai. I will continue his message by reading from his book Nothing to It.

Practice Basics to Arrive Home
How can we use our basic practices of sitting meditation, walking meditation, and mindfulness to arrive home, in the here and now? Our teacher, Thich Nhat Hanh, said “I have arrived, I am home" is the shortest Dharma Talk he had ever given. How can we use our Plum Village practices to be truly established in the here and now, and to embrace life with all its wonders and challenges? I will facilitate this Sunday as we contemplate using our practices to be more fully present to whatever is happening at any moment.
Smiling,
Marge
