On Wednesday 3/13, Maho Kawachi will lead a live online talk with @Shambhala Online. Join me for “After You’re Gone.” When Buddha taught the Four Noble Truths, the first truth was, “life has sufferings.” For instance, we all have experienced a loss one way or another— could be a loss of job, loss of an opportunity, loss of trust, or loss of beloved one. When you experience the suffering of loss, how do we deal with that? Let’s turn toward the suffering of loss because we have a capacity to do it.

“The Personal Path of Unraveling Social Conditioning”

March 6, 2019 at 7pm ET
with Alexandra Vlasic
We’ve all been socialized, or conditioned by the culture, people, and institutions around us, so when we sit to meditate, we are not just sitting with our own minds, but also with society and the messages that we have absorbed over our lifetime(s). Together we will explore how we can engage our innate awareness to expose, unravel, and de-bunk the untruths that we hold in our minds and bodies, particularly the biases, privilege, and internalized oppressions around race, gender, class, sexuality, and ability, that live within us whether we actively believe them or not. The path of practicing social justice can begin with our own minds and hearts.
This week’s talk will be hosted by Ashley Dinges.
Each talk costs $10 for the General Public and $20 for Patrons who wish to pay-it-forward. Because we are committed to making these programs accessible to all, there is also a 25% discount option that one can select for each talk. If you are facing significant financial hardship, please email Barbara at registrar@shambhalaonline.org.
All are welcome to join these live weekly events, which include guided meditation and a talk and discussion with a featured guest teacher.
