Rejoicing in Pramodana

From Triratna News on Thu, 24 Oct, 2013 - 00:21Aparajita writes:

As many of you know, Pramodana (Blackburn, UK) is terminally ill with cancer and has a prognosis of months. To help him share his experience with the Order, and for the Order to support him, a website/blog has been set up: www.pramodana.net.

Please visit the site for the latest news of his situation, and to share your memories and rejoicings. We are hoping it will grow into a rich resource that will reflect...

Grants announced for 2013 Triratna Growth Fund

From Triratna News on Wed, 23 Oct, 2013 - 06:06Starting a new Buddhist group is never easy, and the Triratna Development Team have been looking at ways to make it easier for Triratna’s pioneers.

One initiative taken last summer was to re-establish the ‘Triratna Growth Fund’ and to invite applications from Triratna groups and teachers around the world. A total of £6,500 was made available by the Chairs Assembly - but over 40 applications were received totalling over £40,000: dramatic proof of the need for such a fund!...

Meditacion Metta Andando

From Centro Budista de Valencia on Wed, 23 Oct, 2013 - 01:00
La meditación caminando es meditación en acción y es una excelente manera de extender nuestra atención consciente y metta en nuestra vida cotidiana

Cuando hacemos meditación caminando estamos usando nuestra experiencia física, mental y emocional de caminar como una base para crear mayor conciencia

Cuando andamos caminando podemos darnos cuenta de nuestro patrones mentales por ejemplo, nuestra tendencia a criticar lo que vamos encontrado a nuestro paso, la gente, las cosas.

Esta meditación es un valioso antídoto para salir de la mente critica y la cháchara mental y conectar con las cosas tal como son este momento, con una actitud receptiva y creativa.

En esta meditación podemos integrar todos los aspectos de nuestra experiencia. Conectar con tu cuerpo en movimiento y disfrutar de la riqueza de caminar y respirar sin buscar otros propósitos....este es un acto de celebración de la vida.

La meditación de metta caminando es especialmente adecuada para las personas que no pueden sentarse quietas durante mucho tiempo o para quienes están todo el día sentado delante de un ordenador y les gustaría moverse.

Te sugiero que antes de hacer esta meditación caminando hayas hecho al menos un par de veces la meditación mettabhavana que se encuentra al principio de este CD.

Proponte andar durante 10 minutos o más por cualquier lugar que te guste. Dedica este tiempo específicamente a cultivar, atención consciente, y la intención de conectar amablemente y con compasión hacia todos los seres que encuentras a tu paso.

Este material es parte del CD: Transformando flechas en flores, MCS, Mindfulness y compasión para la salud

Loving Kindness - A day long Meditation Retreat

From Eight Step Recovery - Using the Buddha's Teachings To Overcome Addiction on Wed, 16 Oct, 2013 - 05:29Vancouver Saturday November 16th 2013
Lovingkindness or Metta Bahvuna, is a powerful form of Buddhist meditation that reconnects us with our natural capcity to be open-hearted with ourselves and with others. One of four Brahma Viharas, or Sublime Attitudes, Lovingkindness uses phrases and visualizations to cultivate a sense of friendliness, kindness, and love, which is our birthright.

This daylong retreat might be a fit for both novice and relative newcomers to meditation and Buddhist practice. We intend to practice...

Litcrawl 2013 at the SFBC: Falling. Apart.

From San Francisco Buddhist Center on Tue, 15 Oct, 2013 - 17:21Saturday, October 19, 8:30pm

Maybe that sense that you’re one person moving forward in time frays around the edges periodically, revealing glimpses of something more soluble than you’d understood. Is it disorienting? Is it fabulous? Is it horrific? Is it divine? Five points of view from states of tumble, collapse, fissure, freedom, and points in between.

SFBC Readers:
