Building constructive community - wellington

Submitted by Rimu on 22 November 2009 - 8:51am | Event

Our spiritual life provides a strong basis for building a sustainable life. For this work, we'll take Nature as our teacher.

In meditation, we embody the values we need to develop, get to know what they feel like and develop the habit of feeling that way.  Meditation helps us find inner sources of contentment and happiness, and weather the stormwinds of change.

We can build our communities on a foundation of love, compassion and mutual valuing.

We'll use meditation and other exercises, sharing and discussion.

Beginners and experienced meditators welcome » Read more
