A 4-Night Meditation Vigil with Eve Kodiak
The “enemy” is the one who justifies our fury. It could be a head of state, whose policies are causing mass misery and death. It could be a criminal. It could be a boss or co-worker, a family member, friend or lover. It could be ourselves.
Extreme times require extreme compassion. To each meditation, we bring a willingness to be with whatever we find unforgivable. Our purpose is not necessarily forgiveness, a quality that is difficult to attain (and easy to fudge). Our purpose is simply to open up a space in our own hearts for compassion.An ocean is made of many drops of water. We aspire only to make our drops compassionate ones.
Bring a journal if you like. Participants are invited either to sit or lie down. There may be some guidance regarding the body, and a mantra for listening. But there will be mostly silence. The meditation period will last 25 – 30 minutes.
You are welcome to join any or all of the meetings.
This class is offered periodically and has previously met on: 29 April 2022.
