Dear Friends,
Please join us for a special evening either in-person or online this Sunday, March 3rd, at 6:30PM ET as we hold our weekly evening of mindfulness practice.
After sitting meditation, we’ll have our monthly recitation of the Five Mindfulness Trainings. Then we’ll have a panel of three senior members of our sangha answer your questions about our practice. This is a good opportunity for all of us, newcomers and longtime practitioners alike, to reflect together on questions about mindfulness.
The panel Q&A discussion will take place at both online and in-person versions of our evening together.
Our in-person program will take place at the Washington Buddhist Vihara, located at 5017 16th St NW DC. Please arrive a few minutes before 6:30pm to get settled. The monks have asked that we dress appropriately for their residence (no short pants or skirts, no tank tops or low cut tops please).
Here’s the evening’s format:
-25 min sit
-Walking meditation
-25 min sit
-Walking meditation
-Greeting and transition
-Recitation of Five Mindfulness Trainings

Our program will officially end at 8:30pm but you’ll have the option to come downstairs for social time together until 9pm if you wish..
