Buddha's Birthday Celebration - I am participating in this lovely event Sunday and invite you all to attend. See below.

Save the Date for May Retreat May 21-22
My dear dharma friend Greg Bender has agreed to come visit us in May for a teaching on the nature of mind. Greg has been a practitioner for over 30 years and has been encouraged to teach Mahamudra. Exact details are to be determined, but it will probably be a teaching at our usual time on Friday night, plus Saturday morning and afternoon. Stay tuned!

Buddha's Birthday Celebration

First Unitarian Universalist Church · 1808 Woodmont Blvd. · Nashville
Sunday, May 2, 8:50 and 10:50 a.m.

Living Buddha
The Rev. Gail Seavey, Cathy Chang, and Rita Frizzell will be leading a three-part investigation of bodhichitta and bodhisattvas. We celebrate the Buddha's birthday by examining Bodhisattvas - living Buddhas - enlightened beings who choose to remain in the "samsara" world to help others. What do Bodhisattvas teach us about living our values in our everyday lives?
Quote of the Week

"Those who cultivate 'bodhicitta' (enlightened mind), known in Mahayana Buddhism as bodhisattvas, are unique people who are not self-involved or in conflict with others, but are especially brave and totally committed to helping all sentient beings according to their capabilities." 

- Khenchen Palden Sherab Rinpoche


Let's wake up!
