Red Clay Sangha

We sit in meditation every Sunday from 9:00 (arrive up to 30 minutes earlier if you'd like to informally join us as we set up!) for an hour and a half (with walking meditation every thirty minutes). For thirty or forty-five minutes we have a dharma discussion facilitated by one of our community members, who will introduce a topic and moderate the conversation. And after our service we all go to a local restaurant for communal lunch.

We sit in meditation every Wednesday from 7:30 (arrive up to 30 minutes earlier if you'd like to informally join us as we set up!) for an hour (with five minutes of walking meditation at 7:55). After meditation we gather in a circle to discuss the a few chapters from our current book selection (which you can find out about on our website). Our book selections generally have a Buddhist core, but they are pretty diverse. Many people arrive after the meditation to participate just in the reading and the subsequent social activities, and many (sometimes most) attendees have not read the book! The book is a point of departure. After our book discussion we leave at 9:30 and go to a local restaurant for community and conversation.

This is a monthly drop-in group offering a supportive place to ask questions and to share our experience of the dharma. After a brief period of seated meditation, we begin with a reading or special topic, followed by group discussion. All who identify as women are welcome, from any spiritual background. No previous experience with meditation is necessary. Here is a list of some texts we will be using to generate and guide discussions: - The Hidden Lamp: Stories from Twenty-Five Centuries of Awakened Women - Buddhism after Patriarchy by Rita Gross - Dreaming Me: Black, Baptist, and Buddhist by Jan Willis Meetings are from 1:00 to 2:30, generally held on the fourth Sunday of the month. Occasionally as a result of Holidays and other events, it is necessary to change the date. If you want to check on schedule, current texts or activities, or anything else about the group, please contact Sally Landrum or Charli Vogt.
