This week @ Beaches Sangha

Hi all. 

Well, last week was a first for Beaches Sangha - meditation by candlelight! We had no power at the Peace Park, so it was candles and my gas burner to heat the billy for tea. It was kind of lovely actually :)


This week is our sutta study session with Winton Higgins. We're up to Chapter 12 of the book: Satipatthana Sutta: The Direct Path to Realisation.

Hope to see you there.

This week @ Beaches

Hi all.

This week @ Beaches Sangha, Neil is going to recall his key learnings from a recent weekend workshop with Gregory Kramer. Greg is known for his 'Insight Dialogue' process which treats personal dialogue as a meditation - it's great stuff! I've been to several of his retreats over the years so I'll throw in my 2c worth if it's helpful.



Hope to see you there.

This week @ Beaches

Hi guys. 

Just a quick note to let you know we have Gawaine Powell-Davies coming for a talk/discussion at Sangha this week. I haven't been informed of the topic, so it'll just be a lucky dip! I'm sure it'll be thought-provoking as always.

Also if anyone has or knows a teen who could do with some mindfulness, Openground is running an 8 week Mindfulness course for teenagers over at Waverley.

Hope to see you Thursday.

This week @ Beaches + Love, Intimacy & the Buddha


Hi all.

This week we have the wheel that just keeps on turning - Jampa Jaffe with the Wheel of Life, Part something-or-other. Seriously, it pretty much covers the whole dharma, so it doesn't really matter what part we're up to. Hope to see you there.

Also, Betsy's mentioned a few times that Subhana is co-leading a 7 week course on Love, Intimacy and the Dharma. Click here for more info.

Finally, we'll be starting to organise the Beaches Sangha retreat in the next couple of weeks, so if you plan on coming and haven't already let us know, please do. It's May 7-10.
