### What do we do during CV Sangha Time?

The schedule is subject to evolve as we co-create this gathering together. In general, we will have:

• Meditation - mostly 30m silent sitting meditation
• Inspiration - sharing reading(s) from wisdom teachers on a weekly topic
• Sharing & Connection - reflecting and sharing about our own experiences and listening deeply
• Community Creation Circle - an opportunity to actively contribute & create the community together
• (optional) Tea & Snacks (8:45-9:15pm) - getting to know each other informally over a warm cup of tea

### What type of space do we wish to create together?

• A space for all of us - that welcomes diversity and embraces creativity & new ideas
• A space where we remind each other to practice meditation & nurture the qualities of kindness, wisdom, generosity and love that our society desperately needs more of
• A space where we can show up as we are, share what’s in our hearts & minds, and listen deeply
• A space where we can cultivate meaningful friendships to support us on the path
• A space where we can get inspired to bring the dharma into our lives. Through formal practice, reflection and our speech and actions every day.

Most importantly, we wish to shape this gathering together. Whether its your first time here, or you come every week, everyone is invited to participate.
