Upcoming retreat on August 31st!
Hey everyone! Just a reminder that our every other monthly day long retreat is coming right up! August 31st is the day, please come and sit with us. End your summer with some strong practice. If you’re worried about sitting on a cushion all day you can use a chair. Here is an article from Lion’s Roar about that very thing. Can I sit in a chair?
Foxes are rescued from Fur Farm and live at Buddhist Monastery.
I thought this was a neat thing and it shows great compassion.
Excellent article from Lion’s Roar…
Great article here on Death and Dying from Lion’s Roar. http://bit.ly/2GDEWxX
