Join me this evening and every Tuesday evening from 7 to 8 PM for a free guided "Do Nothing" meditation (also known as "Shikantaza" or "Just Sitting" in the Zen tradition) and dialogue.
Tonight's dialogue will explore the the secret to living a more fulfilling life. The secret is that there is no secret, that no answers are forthcoming, and that the uncertainty that so much displeases us in daily life is a feature, not a bug, of this miraculous unfolding we call life. Seen this way, life opens up to us not as a problem waiting to be solved or figured out, but as a mystery beckoning to be contemplated and admired.
No prior meditation experience is necessary. We will meet by zoom until we can find an appropriate venue to meet in person and the pandemic more fully abates.
I'm a college professor who teaches meditation both within and outside the university setting. I organize an online weekly advanced meditation discussion group and write a meditation-related blog, which you can browse here: https://www.meditator-x.com/ .
