River's Edge Meditation Group

Join us for our February-March Book and Discussion Club! We meet three Saturdays a month, 10am-noon, starting February 6th! This time we are exploring integral Christianity. It’s true, we are a mostly Buddhist practice group, but we have found it helpful to return to our root western wisdom traditions for two reasons: 1. Heal our relationship with Christianity, including the wounds many of us have with church. 2. Rediscover the depth already present in Christianity, espe...cially regarding spiritual practice and experience, as a way to further our meditation practice generally. The additional benefit of this book club is a simple and robust, spiritually-oriented introduction to post-progressive or integral thought, which is the leading edge of cultural development at the moment. If you enjoy Richard Rohr, you will gain some insight into how he thinks! Seamus Kennedy will be leading the discussions, but it will be a question-based format, assuming folks will have done the reading! For more information, email him at [email protected].

Right understanding asks questions of our hearts. What do we really value, what do we really care about in this life? Our lives are quite short. Our childhood g...oes by very quickly, then adolescence and adult life go by. We can be complacent and let our lives disappear in a dream, or we can become aware. In the beginning of practice we must ask what is most important to us. When we’re ready to die, what will we want to have done? What will we care about most? At the time of death, people who have tried to live consciously ask only one or two questions about their life: Did I learn to live wisely? Did I love well? We can begin by asking them now. http://ow.ly/4nhgrQ See more
