SUMMARY:Meeting to Discuss One-Year Retreat at SCOL
DESCRIPTION:Long retreat provides an opportunity for focused meditation practice on the Buddhist path. Inspired by Bokar Rinpoche\, with the vision of Lama Michael Conklin and the work of many others\, KCC created Ser Chö Ösel Ling (SCOL) as a place for long retreat. We conducted a one-year retreat in 2013\, and a three-year retreat beginning in 2015. Since then\, KCC has conducted many shorter retreats at SCOL to benefit the sangha and all beings. \nKCC would like to again offer the opportunity for long-term retreat at SCOL. We are now gauging interest for a retreat that would begin in 2028. Initial estimates place the cost at around $25K for a year. Determining the true cost depends on factors including how many retreatants we have. \nIf we have a suitable number of people to fill the one year retreat\, wonderful! If there are spaces remaining\, we would open up the opportunity to do six months. And if there is still space\, a three-month stint is possible.  \nAre you interested in long retreat? Do you have the conditions that make long retreat in 2028 feasible for you?  \nIf you would like to hear more about joining a three\, six\, or twelve month retreat at SCOL\, please join our meeting in-person at KCC and via Zoom on Sunday\, September 27th at 1:00pm. \n  \nCLICK HERE TO JOIN ON ZOOM \n  \nMeeting ID: 891 4749 6014\nPasscode: 181464\n\nVIEW EVENT DETAILS: https://kcc.org/event/meeting-to-discuss-one-year-retreat-at-scol/

SUMMARY:Women’s Fellowship Afternoon
DESCRIPTION:A Gathering for Femme‑Identifying Practitioners (AFAB\, Trans\, gender expansive\, etc. included) \nWe warmly invite you\, and any children who may accompany you\, to an in‑person conversation circle. While children are welcome\, please note that we are not able to offer separate childcare. \nTogether we’ll enjoy snacks and open a gentle space for reflection on how gender shapes our practice\, our sense of belonging\, and our connection with one another. \nPossible questions for exploration include: \n\nHow does your dharma practice feel informed by your gender?\nAre there obstacles to practice that you encounter which feel as if they are related to your gender identification?\nWhat would make you feel like your whole self was welcome here? Or if you already feel welcome\, what sparks that sense of connection?\nIf you are interested in connecting with other femme identifying folks\, how come? What part of your heart-mind yearns for this?\n\nCome as you are; your voice and presence matter. Nobody who wants to come will be turned away.\n\nVIEW EVENT DETAILS: https://kcc.org/event/womens-fellowship-afternoon/
