Dear Friends,

Thay said, nothing causes more suffering than an untrained mind, and nothing creates more wellbeing and happiness than a well-trained mind. So, how do we train our mind? To train our mind we have to understand our mind. To understand is to love. To give our attention, our loving kindness to our own mind is a gentle encounter with reality. In this practice we get to know ourselves, love ourselves, and transform ourselves into yogis of the mind. This Sunday we’ll train ourselves in the fine art of mindful living. I very much look forward to being with you.

Smiling,

Keith

What is Enlightenment?

Our practice aims at enlightenment, also known as awakening. What does it mean to be an enlightened being, or better yet, an enlightening being? Thay says, “there is no way to enlightenment, enlightenment is the way.” In that case, how do we practice enlightenment? What does enlightenment feel like? What does it feel like to be awake?

Join me and we’ll practice enlightening to find out for ourselves.

Smiling,

Keith
