Pine Street Sangha
Description
Welcome to the Pine Street Sangha: Befriending Meditation, Exploring Experience, Integrating Insight
We meditate in a gentle and accepting way, allowing whatever occurs in our inner worlds to unfold naturally. At the conclusion of meditation, we reflect upon and consider what happened during meditation through journaling and exploring our experience with a teacher. Over time, we learn more about the inner conditions and habitual patterns of thought and feeling that shape our lives. We grow to understand which conditions shape difficult inner states and those that shape beneficial ones. By letting our life into our meditation, our meditation enters and impacts our lives in subtle and profound ways. By recalling what happens in meditative experiences, we develop awareness and discover our own understanding of the dharma, the teachings of Early Buddhism.
