Have you longed for a deeper connection with insects? Do you feel aversion, fear, or ambivalence towards them? The goal of Insect Dharma is to reignite this sacred relationship with our fellow sentient beings.
At this event we'll practice two styles of meditation. The first practice is based on the teachings of Yongey Mingyur Rinpoche, a Tibetan Buddhist monk. In it, we will transform feelings of fear and revulsion towards insects into feelings of love and gratitude.
In the second practice we will walk to a plant pollinator garden. There we will practice Attentive Love, where we allow ourselves to simply be with the insects around us and embrace them in warm affection. We will close with reflections on our experiences and enjoy some refreshments.
All are welcomed to this free event. Donations are welcome.
