Dear friends,
The Buddha said that most people know of no escape from pain other than pleasure, and that this keeps them (us) trapped in a cycle of suffering and desire. He also recommended an alternative…
I’m writing to invite you to our next group call, where we will spend some time contemplating the Buddha’s parable of the two arrows. We will consider some of the unhealthy ways in which we may be reacting to painful feelings, as well as the alternative the Buddha recommends.
This month’s call is an opportunity to explore our unconscious patterns of escape, and to tap into our shared experience of what might work better when we are going through difficult experiences. (The call is not recorded, and there is no requirement to speak; you are welcome to simply listen to others.)
There is no need to prepare for the call, but you can find out more about what we’ll be discussing in my latest piece:
🗓 Date: Saturday, October 31st
🕖 Time: 1:00 PM ET / 10:00 AM PT / 5:00 PM UK
⏳ Duration: 60-90 minutes
