Black Mountain Pragmatic Dharma Meetup

In this Pragmatic Dharma Meetup, hosted by Vince Fakhoury Horn and other guest teachers, we will be exploring what works in our Dharma practice. Together, we'll engage in the three trainings of Buddhism, including training in:

1. Morality or Ethics (Sila)
2. Concentration or Meditation (Samadhi)
3. Insight or Wisdom (Panna)

As one of my dharma teachers, Kenneth Folk, often quipped: "Enlightenment is a team sport." So, we come together in each 75 minute meetup to practice together. The form of our practice could look like any of the following:

(a) Sitting in silence as a group
(b) Receiving guided instruction or teachings from a qualified teacher
(c) Engaging in out-loud, social meditation practices or group discussions
(d) Some combination of the above

You're invited, during each session, to exercise complete autonomy in terms of how you steer your own practice. While many things will be offered in these groups, by people who sound extremely confident in what they're sharing, you will never be asked to do anything other than what you choose to, including following instructions, engaging in social practices.

SUGGESTED DONATION: $20

This event is offered freely, to anyone willing to expend the energy to attend. That said, you're invited to donate at the event to support the teacher's livelihood.
