Thich Nhat Hanh

Our public dharma talks are a popular forum where you can ask a teacher anything! Each talk starts with a short intro talk by a practitioner sharing their spiritual journey. After their talk, the audience is invited to ask questions - on Zen, life, death, or any other pressing concern. Please join us every Thursday in person or online via Zoom at 7:30 PM. After the official portion is done, there will be refreshments where you'll have the chance to meet sangha members. Go to our website for more information and our online practice schedule at https://cambridgezen.org/weekly-announcements.

Welcome to our sanctuary of peace, a safe place where you can ease your mind and restore your strength.

This online course for mental health sheds light on the workings of our minds that usually remain hidden from our view, yet often control us. During the weekly classes, Dr. Yu will explore the many conditions that are manifested in our minds, their common roots and show ways to uproot them and gain back our mental wellness, wellbeing, and freedom.

Only Evening meditation Take time to unwind your mind every day with a group of meditators. You will have the opportunity to practice meditation with guided commentary, and silence and also listen to the meditation. **Link to join: https://www.tinyurl.com/bkboston**

Although success looks different for everyone, the tools for achieving it are the same. Why is it so hard for people to make positive, lasting changes in our lives? It’s because we’re trying to change the outer world, without changing our inner world. Our minds tend to repeat the same thoughts and behavior patterns of the past. When we refresh our minds and break free of those patterns, we find that we have the wisdom and ability to make the necessary changes to succeed. \*\*RSVP here : https://www.onlinemeditationevents.com/class/success-meditation/

Members who attend meditation just before this also come to the Virtual Coffee. Please join us to hang out and talk story. Call Greg at 2847955 if you have trouble accessing this event

Private Group. Closed to the Public Knowing ourselves and understanding our abilities is the first step toward wielding our gifts with control and accuracy. In subsequent classes we will verify and hone our talents with activities and discussion. These are hands-on workshops and participation is expected. The goal of our series will be to develop expertise in areas of particular interest such as mediumship, channeling, divination, healing and, etc.. Our ultimate directions will be determined by class members as we evolve. I look forward to sharing and discovering with you. - Cynthia

From birth, human beings are learning. Before we are able to hold concrete memories, we are being shaped and impacted by everything about our lives and situations. From the point that we become capable of cognizant thought and memory, our lives could be summed up as a series of our responses to our circumstances, whether for good or for ill. Dr. Joe Dispenza sees a deep need for human beings to live *on purpose*. Rather than just living life in reaction mode, he challenges people to live intentionally, to seek to change the negative that we have encountered and to pursue the positive through purposeful steps in a different and healthy direction. His study and work seek to demonstrate the changes that can be made from the inside out. Join us as we take a look at new ways to grow at **6:30 pm,** **Tuesday, May 5, 2026, at True Food Kitchen, Easton Town Center, Columbus**.
