  • Date/Time  Saturday, June 29th at 10:15am
  • Location  In person & Online Zendo

Equanimity is a huge topic almost synonymous with ‘Zen practice’. In this talk I’ll look at the word through different lenses, some dating from the time of the Buddha.
 
This dharma talk will take place during a one day silent meditation retreat. The talk is open to the public. Please note, there will be no informal zazen, beginners’ instruction or public meditation because of the retreat. Seats will be available in the foyer. The talk will also be accessible on Zoom through the regular Saturday program link. We ask that you arrive in time for the start and depart when it has finished. Please be mindful to keep noise to a minimum. We look forward to seeing you and appreciate your help in holding the space.
