Description

Let’s Practice Together:

The Subliminal and Genuine Power of Practicing Generosity

with Wildecy de Fátima Jury

Sunday, October 11th from 10:00 - 11:30 am PT (Pacific Time) 

Online via Zoom

 

About the Session:

We will be exploring the theme of dāna (generosity), the first of the Pāramitās, or transcendent virtues, in Buddhist practice. Far more than the simple act of giving, dāna is a gentle opening of the heart and a letting go of grasping. It invites us to reflect on how we can offer ourselves, our time, and our resources with compassion, tenderness, and care. Equally, it asks how we might receive with humility, trust, and gratitude. Through this inquiry, we will explore generosity as a sacred practice that nourishes the field of merit and helps us meet life itself as an offering.

About the Series:

These times call for us to expand our individual and collective capacity to navigate uncertainty, instability, and complexity. By practicing deeply together, we strengthen our ability to meet these challenges with resilience and presence. 

Throughout the year, we will gather one Sunday a month online as a community of curious practitioners to explore the timeless wisdom of the Buddhadharma and mindfulness/Insight meditation. In each session, we will cultivate presence, deepen our meditation practice, and engage in shared reflections and inquiry. Together, we cultivate a collective heart-mind-body—a living, interconnected field—spacious enough to hold and transform whatever life brings our way.

Let's Practice Together offers a space for meaningful dialogue—an opportunity to ask questions, explore personal and collective experiences, and learn from one another. We welcome sincere and committed practitioners of all levels and backgrounds to join us on this collective path of discovery and connection.

Sessions will be recorded and shared with all registrants. During the session, practitioners who don't wish to be recorded may offer their questions and reflections in the chat.

Setting the Container:

We request participants attend the whole program to respect the group and the teacher, and ask for your support with creating a sacred container by arriving to the session on time as the zoom room will close at 10:15 am PT. 

At Braided Wisdom, we strive to cultivate an online space that supports connection, presence, and collective care. While we invite participants to have their cameras on to help nurture a sense of community, we wholeheartedly honor that there are many reasons someone may choose otherwise. We encourage you to meet yourself where you are, and if any needs arise around this, you’re warmly invited to reach out to us at info@braidedwisdom.org.

Please note, there is a possibility the session may go over 15 minutes. It would be great if you can stay, and we understand if you need leave at 11:30 am PT.
