SUMMARY:Milarepa Guru Yoga and Feast Honoring Kalu Rinpoche and Bokar Rinpoche
DESCRIPTION:Followed by a Potluck Lunch\nIn-person and via Zoom \nIn KCC’s 50th anniversary year\, we will honor our connection to both the dharma center’s founder\, Kalu Rinpoche\, and his successor\, Bokar Rinpoche\, by practicing Milarepa’s Guru Yoga and Feast in their honor. This date falls between the anniversary of the passing of the previous Kalu Rinpoche (May 10\, 1989) and the birthday of the reincarnation of Bokar Rinpoche (April 25\, 2006). You needn’t have any empowerment nor previous experience with the practice to attend. \nA guru yoga is a practice where we imagine a prominent master of the lineage before us\, in this case Milarepa\, and that this being is also the essence of our other teachers and inspirations\, such as Kalu Rinpoche and Bokar Rinpoche. We then chant a text\, making offerings and supplications to these masters. \nTowards the end of the ritual\, we will chant a few songs composed by Kalu Rinpoche and Bokar Rinpoche and will continue with a shared “feast”— a small bit of consecrated food and drink which we consume as part of the practice. At the end\, we receive blessing and inspiration from Milarepa\, mix our mind with the awakened mind of these masters\, rest for a bit\, and conclude with an aspiration prayer. At the conclusion of this\, we will share in a potluck lunch which will begin around 12:00pm. \nThe text will be displayed on the screen in the meditation hall and on the Zoom screen. The food and drink for the ritual will be provided—no need to bring offerings for this. If you would like to contribute to the event\, you can donate here. \nJoin Online \nClick the Zoom button below to enter the session (this is the same link as for Sunday Shamatha Meditation). 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/milarepa-guru-yoga-and-feast-honoring-kalu-rinpoche-and-bokar-rinpoche/

SUMMARY:Children's Program
DESCRIPTION:Please note: The schedule for the Children’s Program has been adjusted through September. Please check the KCC calendar for upcoming dates. \nThe KCC Children’s Program is an opportunity to introduce children to Buddhist values within a supportive\, sincere dharma community using simple dharma activities\, storytelling\, open discussion\, songs\, art projects and activities\, including play\, to promote kindness and compassion. Our goal is to provide a fun\, meaningful experience for all. \nSunday Morning Children’s Program \nOn the second and fourth Sundays of each month\, from 9:00 to 11:00 am\, we offer the Sunday Morning Children’s Program. This program normally starts in September and runs through the second Sunday in June. In July and August we meet once a month on the fourth Sunday. We require that at least one parent or guardian be present at KCC when their child attends. \nThe age range we currently serve is 6 to 12; however\, we do allow slightly younger and older children on a case by case basis as appropriate. Please feel free to discuss this with the program coordinator\, Laurie Simpson\, if needed. Email contact here. \nWhile there is no fee for the program\, dana (offerings) are accepted and go towards helping us continue providing programs such as these. In order to support the program on Sundays we ask that parents agree to be available to assist the teacher if needed – this is a shared role and can be filled by parents or other adults who wish to participate in this way. During the regular school year please note that we request you consider committing to bringing your child both Sundays each month throughout this time frame\, but this is not required. \nAlso please be aware that\, to attend this program\, your child needs to be able to manage their speech and physical activity cooperatively in a small group to help maintain a peaceful children’s sangha. If this is a concern we ask that you attend with your child until they are comfortable with the group. Ultimately we want to be as inclusive as possible\, but must also work to create a safe and welcoming environment for all attending.\n\nVIEW EVENT DETAILS: https://kcc.org/event/childrens-program-2-3-2-2/2026-05-10/
