Four Kinds of Giving
Featuring: How I gave the Dalai Lama over 1 million dollars, and what happened next.
What: When when we think of giving we tend to think of material gifts and financial donations. However, there are other ways of expressing generosity. Offered with good heart these can be even more powerful to give and to receive.
This program will cover four kinds of giving, including the transcendent practice of generosity. But we’re not talking dreamy idealism. The program will cover practical, down-to-earth methods to put into action.
When: Details coming soon. (Be sure to sign my mailing list for up to date information.)
Where: Anywhere you need to be. Online teleclass program will be offered over the phone, recordings will be available.
Why: I believe we’re “wired” for generosity. We need to give. We flourish when we contribute. Part of us deflates if we feel our gifts are not received. When our generosity is locked up inside us — we don’t have enough dollars or time to give — the contraction hurts. If you’re feeling any strain of money, love or well-being it’s particularly essential to keep generosity flowing.
Bonus: Ask me and I’ll tell you how I gave over one million dollars to the Dalai Lama when I was under enormous financial stress. I’ll tell you how I did it and the amazing, unexpected results.
May You Be Happy
Including: For years I misunderstood the instructions and did the practice the wrong way. I want to tell you how that became a great blessing.
What: Loving-kindness meditation comes from the Buddhist tradition, but its practice is universal in scope. With great tenderness and awareness we make wishes for happiness, ease, and other blessings. We wish these first for ourselves, then extend them to ever widening circles of life.
When: Details coming soon. (You are on my mailing list, aren’t you?)
Where: Anywhere you need to be. Online teleclass program will be offered over the phone, recordings will be available.
Why: If we want happiness, if we want to offer love and compassion towards ourselves and those experiencing suffering, we need to be firmly established in joy. Loving-kindness meditation is about making friends with our thoughts and emotions and the people who make up our world. We connect gently and deeply, cultivating an expanding sense of care for ourselves and all beings.
Bonus: For many of us, thinking “May I be Happy,” brings down an avalanche of difficult emotions. Based on need, we’ll do at least one full session or even a mini-program on practicing loving-kindness beginning with ourselves.
