• Monthly Sunday Sit: The Freedom We Feel When Love and Wisdom Become One

    Ekoji 3411 Grove Avenue, Richmond, VA, United States

    The enlightened Vipassana teacher Nani Dipa Ma once said that at a certain point love and wisdom become one. We don't have to be highly realized beings to explore and directly feel this truth. In our time together, we will review how the 3 characteristics of experience - change, not self and suffering - merge with love through reflection and practices of loving kindness as well as compassion. We will also consider the freedom that this understanding and felt sense imparts.
