The New Dawn Sangha (in the Plum Village Tradition of Thich Nhat Hanh) will be practicing with us this Saturday, Feb 24th, in Columbia, Maryland. Deepest bow.
At our last sit, we read this poem by Thich Nhat Hanh:
For Warmth
I hold my face in my two hands.
No, I am not crying.
I hold my face in my two hands
to keep the loneliness warmβ
two hands protecting,
two hands nourishing,
two hands preventing
my soul from leaving me
in anger.
We will sit, do walking meditation, recite Metta prayer. May our collective practice plant the seeds of the causes and conditions for peace. Rain or shine, please join us. Outside NYC, please form your own gathering, practice with us, let us know, [email protected].
