Reflections on the teachings of the Buddha Dharma in relation to the songs we will be singing

Sharing and community building at these monthly events
Join us for an evening of meditation, Dharma reflection, and quiet celebration as we mark the turning of the year together.
​
Teacher trainees Paul LaVigne and Vik Anantha will lead guided meditation and a Dharma reflection from 7:00–8:30 pm (in person in the PIMC Living Room and online). Tea and potluck snacks follow, then a short ceremony in the Dharma Hall for letting-go and intention-setting.
​
Afterward, the hall will be open for silent sitting and walking practice until midnight, with a bell every 30 minutes. Come for all or part of the evening.
