2016 Mindfulness Retreat for People of Color
Dear Friends,
We are happy to begin sharing the Dharma talks from The Path of True Love: Healing Ourselves, from our recent mindfulness retreat for People of Color.
Today’s Dharma talk, entitled “The Alchemy of Grief: Turning Suffering into Light" was offered by Br. Larry Ward on the first morning of our retreat.
Br. Larry provided a general outline of his talk:
- Poem
- Why I Practice
- It’s About Love (verb)
- Yoniso and Ayoniso
- Nutriments and De-Nutriments
- Poem
Let us now stop, listen deeply and contemplate these teachings and sharings to cultivate our individual and collective healing and great aspiration to strengthen the Beloved Community.
