Dear Sangha
Barbora and I are so lucky to have you! We are only 2 months away from the time that we will give birth to our first baby, and we want to celebrate this joy with you :) Also, we would be so grateful if we could have your support this Sunday by joining us in having a ceremony to recognize our rite of passage into parenthood. We do not walk alone in this adventure; we walk with our future generations, our blood ancestors, our land ancestors, our spiritual ancestors, our friends, our teachers and of course our lovely Sangha! If you wish to prepare a poem, a few kind words, some advise about parenting from your experience, or simply words of comforting support, we will welcome it all during the ceremony this Sunday :)

Dear friends,
What a wonderful opportunity we have each week to come together and practice as a sangha! This week I will share on the theme of togetherness from Thay's book Friends on the Path as well as some inspiration I am bringing back from the recent Earth Holder retreat at Deer Park monastery. Looking forward to seeing you Sunday and having the chance to sit, breathe, walk and share in community!
If you would like a little taste of the retreat, you can enjoy this recording of the Earth Holder Sangha Buildling Panel.
Bowing and smiling,
Stephanie :)

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
