Sangha Nights in October

A Lineage of Spiritual Friendship

Wednesdays 7pm to 9pm in person and on zoom

During the month of October, we will explore the meaning of lineage within the context of spiritual friendship. The Buddha said "spiritual friendship is the whole of the spiritual life". The Buddha also said "be an island unto yourself, be your own refuge, having no other". How do we make sense of these seemingly contradictory teachings? Please join us to find out more. 

To mark Indigenous Peoples Day Oct 9, all donations from Sangha Nights this month, and from our Movie Night Oct 8, will go to Friendship House, an Indigenous led Organization in the Mission (15th & Julian off of Mission St), that has been providing services to Native Americans for almost 60 years.

Oct 4 - Join us to celebrate MJ's path to ordination, as she prepares to leave for her ordination ceremony in Mexico, at Chintamani Retreat Center

Oct 11 - Danadasa will explore the meaning of lineage and spiritual friendship

Oct 18 - Viradhamma will share the story of Dr. Ambedkar the the mass Buddhist conversions in India

Oct 25 - Danadasa will speak about some of the teachers who have shaped his journey
