A birthday party for Thay – bring tea and cake!
The 5th of October is one week before Thay’s birthday (in the historical dimension!) or continuation day (in the ultimate dimension).
We therefore invite you to a celebration! This will take the form of a panel of Dharma teachers and senior practitioners, and yourselves, to offer a birthday wish for our dear teacher, and/or perhaps a treasured moment you remember from a teaching that you received from him.
Happy to say that we will have a panel of six – three elders and three youngers!
Elders
Theresa Payne, Angie Searle and Barbara Hickling
Youngers
Ho-ting Fung, Jack Davies, Joe Hughes
The meditation will be ’Together in Peace’ in honour of Thay’s dedication to bringing peace into the world, the panel sharing will follow, after which we invite you to bring tea, cake and a candle, to offer your own wish and memory in small group sharings.
On the first Sunday of every month, we offer a Morning of Mindfulness led by UK Lay Dharma Teachers, Members of the Order of Interbeing, Monastic Dharma Teachers and special guests.
The morning will typically include a guided meditation, followed by a talk or panel. After a short break, there will be an opportunity for Dharma sharing in groups.
