SUMMARY:Shamatha Meditation - Half Day + Potluck
DESCRIPTION:This event will be held in person and over Zoom. \nAt KCC\, the foundation of spiritual training is Shamatha\, a basic sitting meditation that develops stable attention and provides the basis for investigating more subtle aspects of awareness. This practice is the essential underpinning of all other meditation practices. \nWhile our minds are busy and distracted by a myriad of disconnected thoughts\, feelings\, and emotions\, it is not possible to deeply engage the meditation methods that could lead us to the intended result of recognizing the nature of mind. Shamatha is a direct method for learning to let the mind rest naturally\, free of our commitment to the tyranny of these distractions. \nLama Eric Triebelhorn provides detailed instructions about the practice of Shamatha on alternating first Sundays from 9:00 AM to 12:30 PM\, followed by a potluck lunch. These Half-Day Sits happen in odd-numbered months: January\, March\, May\, July\, September\, and November. \nAll are welcome to attend. \nJoin for Shamatha Meditation Online \nClick the Zoom button below to enter the session. If you join early\, you’ll be placed in a waiting room until the session begins. \nJOIN ON ZOOM \nDepending on your Zoom settings\, you may be asked to enter a passcode for this event. \nPasscode: 798448 \nIf you experience any issues accessing the session\, please reach out via email at zoom@kcc.org.\n\nVIEW EVENT DETAILS: https://kcc.org/event/shamatha-meditation-half-day-potluck-2/2026-07-05/
