22 November — Self and Other: Early Buddhist Pathways of Relational Presence with Bhikkhunī Dhammadinna, hosted by Martine Batchelor
How did the early Buddhist teachings understand the constructs of and boundary between self and other? Bhikkhunī Dhammadinnā will open with a brief overview of the text-historical approach to early Buddhist sources. This will form the basis for a joint reflection with Martine (and participants) on how the teachings they have transmitted shape and question the sense of self in relation to others.

Mindfulness is an integral part of the path to awakening. It plays the role of remembering, noticing, and directing our attention, so that other good qualities of the mind can arise. The Seven Factors of Awakening are an early Buddhist framework that describes how the mind & body can develop, starting with mindfulness but going beyond it towards liberation.

Half-Day Retreat @ NYI Online

May 12/May 19/ May 26 — Online course
Friendships are something we all experience. In his early teachings, the Buddha spoke extensively about this essential aspect of human life, and several suttas are devoted entirely to the theme of friendship. These teachings emphasise the vital role of dharma friends — in walking the path of practice and awakening.
In this course, we will explore the Dharma of friendships through these original teachings, examining how they can guide us in building meaningful connections, creating supportive communities, and cultivating the qualities of both being and having good friends in our daily lives.
