Stone and Brooks: Contemporary Buddhism and Weavers
Details
In this workshop we will discuss two TED talks, one by Michael Stone and David Brooks. Both discuss the importance of relating to others as well as to ourselves. Stone examines "relationship" through Buddhism and David Brooks through a more traditional Western perspective. Each brings interesting insights into what it means to live a meaningful life.

Given social distancing, there will only be 6 spots available. Also there is a $5 event fee that will go to maintaining this meetup.
I'm sorry I posted this late, I hope everyone can make it. I'm still thinking about what readings we should do in the future.
