​Rev. Ellen's Sunday, January 25, talk title is "How to Live With Radical Compassion in Challenging Times."

 

I invite you to join me in exploring the profound concepts of living with radical compassion during these challenging times. Together, we will delve into how to transform these difficult moments into training grounds for deeper love, breaking free from patterns of division that result in chronic resentment and suffering. True compassionate action begins with mindful presence, guiding us to awaken to the suffering rooted in our separateness, as encapsulated in the Bodhisattva path of Buddhism. As stress and fear amplify our sense of separateness, leading to the creation of enemies within families and society, we'll examine how true compassionate action can awaken deeper attention and remind us of our essential oneness. Through mindful movements and meditation practices, we can liberate ourselves, understanding that this inner work forms the foundation for all healing—both individual and collective.

 

"Your task is not to seek for love, but merely to seek and find all the barriers within yourself that you have built against it."  Rumi
