Pete will lead us in an introduction to the Fourteen Verses on Meditation with the First Verse:
Like the two wings of a bird,
the practices of stopping (shamatha) and looking deeply (vipashyana)
rely upon each other
and belong together, side by side.
These teachings were offered at Deer Park November 2010-February 2011 much the same as the Moment by Moment teachings this past winter. The Fourteen Verses on Meditation, a course description, weekly handouts and Dharmacasts are available for practice and reflection.
