Dear Friends,
WHY DO WE SUFFER?
We suffer from habits of mind.
Our practice is to train our minds, so we do not create suffering, so we create joy, happiness, peace, wellbeing, the mind of love, enlightenment, Nirvana, etc. We can subsume all of these under the label WELLBEING, the fourth of the Four Noble Truths, which is the Noble Eightfold Path, which is our path, our practice.
Understanding our mind, we know when our habits are creating suffering and we know not to let that continue, and we know how to respond and change to creating habits that generate wellbeing.
We will practice the Art of Living, as Thich Nhat Hanh has called it, together, and create habits of wellbeing, for ourselves, our loved ones, all of human kind, the earth and all beings.
I look forward to being with you.
Smiling,
Keith

You are warmly invited to join us for a modified version of the Buddhist Ceremony for the Deceased.
We will be honoring the life of our beloved sangha member, Craig Cavins, whose physical body died on April 29th. While we will no longer feel his physical presence, he will continue in our hearts and minds. We will read some poetry of Thay’s, do sitting and walking meditation, sing some songs of practice, and have an opportunity to share our experiences with Craig or reflections about impermanence and living fully in the present moment.
All sangha participants are welcome, even if you didn’t know Craig. Our lives are all impermanent, and the messages to be shared at sangha are relevant to all.

Last Tuesday Marge shared about impermanence, one of Buddha’s core teachings and one of the Dharma Seals. This Tuesday we will continue with an opportunity to explore the nature of non-self.
Peace,
Pete
