SUMMARY:Bhante Sujatha's Miami Dhamma Tour
DESCRIPTION:Dear Friends\, \nEvery year I am blessed with the chance to visit Miami to meet my friends\, make new ones\, and to share the Dhamma of the Buddha including the teachings of loving-kindness as I have understood them through my life experiences. \nFor all my friends who are planning to meet me\, I look forward to seeing you soon and know we will have memorable experiences together. I also want to inspire you to think about introducing the practice and workshops to your friends and families who may have never tried meditation before. Of all the gifts we give to each other\, the chance to be together and develop our well-being and mindfulness is potentially life changing and priceless. \nIf I see you or not\, please continue your practice and to take care of yourself. Mindfulness is something that doesn’t require religion or belief\, but it does require an open mind\, diligent attention\, and daily practice. Do these\, and you will find that you are the key to your well-being\, and that your greatest support is your practice. \nSomething new! My teams has found that many people are interested in hosting an event\, scheduling one on one time with me\, or creating an inventive occasion\, but don’t know how to get started. If you have an idea\, and would like to learn more\, please write to my assistant Michael at bhantesassistantmichael@gmail.com \nWishing everyone all my blessings and a happy holiday season. \nMay you be well\, happy\, and peaceful.\nBhante Sujatha

SUMMARY:Practical Sutra Study with Bhante Sujatha
DESCRIPTION:Come join Bhante Sujatha for monthly practical sutra study sessions on Zoom – get ready to deepen your understanding and practice!\n\n\n\n“Buddha vacana” (the Buddha’s words) are lifestyles. \nI have observed and interacted with many scholars pursuing the teaching of the Buddha through academic practices. I myself have done this as part of my monk’s training\, and know it is very important for our growth as monks\, for the purpose of making the Dhamma accessible to people\, and for the purpose of protecting the life of the Buddha Dhamma. \nStudying these beautiful teachings is important\, but we also have to understand that if they are not put into a daily practice\, they serve as much purpose as a book collecting dust on the shelf. I do not think the Buddha intended for the teachings to simply be collected and memorized\, but to be understood\, and applied. \nAs I understand at this time in my practice\, there are two Dharmas: \n1. Head Dharma \n2. Heart Dharma \nI have met practitioners and students all over the world\, and many of them approach the teaching from either one of these aspects\, but it is my wish for people to develop both. \nTaking into consideration requests from students across the world for more sutra studies\, I have decided to create this “Practical Sutra Study Session” as a monthly program designed to give more support to those on the path of self awareness and mindfulness. \nI hope that you can join\, and come together with noble friends to deepen our practice together. \nMay you be well\, happy\, and peaceful. \n  \nCOST: $10 \nA link will be sent to all registrants 2 hours before the workshop begins. \n  \nWANT TO PARTICIPATE BUT UNABLE TO JOIN? \nNOT TO WORRY! \nTHE EVENT WILL BE RECORDED AND SENT TO ALL REGISTERED GUESTS!

SUMMARY:A Meditation for Thanksgiving with Bhante Sujatha Online via Zoom
DESCRIPTION:Dear Friends\, \nAs November has come\, talk of Thanksgiving is in the air. As I notice this\, it has given me pause to reflect on why we give thanks\, what we give thanks for\, and how we practice giving thanks.In my reflections\, it is clear to me that all of these are so different for so many of us\, and influence us all in so many ways. \nI would like to invite you to join me on November 25th from wherever you are to take time to clear our minds and recenter ourselves for the holiday. In this way we can deepen our connection with ourselves\, investigate our values\, and possibly bring our best selves and an open mind to the holiday table. \nI hope to see you there\, and wish you all a safe\, healthy\, and happy holiday. \nMay you be well\, happy\, and peaceful.\nBhante Sujatha\, The Loving Kindness Monk \nPLEASE NOTE: IF YOU WOULD LIKE TO ATTEND THIS EVENT BUT ARE UNABLE TO\, \nA RECORDING WILL BE SENT TO ALL REGISTERED GUESTS. \nTo Join\, Click HERE
