SUMMARY:Dhamma Book Club with Beth
DESCRIPTION:Join us for our Dhamma Book Club. Our first book is Dipa Ma: The Life and Legacy of a Buddhist Master by Amy Schmidt—the story of Dipa Ma\, a widowed mother who\, through profound determination\, became one of the most influential meditation teachers of the twentieth century and a guiding light for many Western teachers. Together we’ll explore her teachings\, share questions\, and consider how her example of fearless practice speaks to our own lives. Whether you’ve finished the chapter or are just curious\, you’re welcome to join the conversation or simply listen. \nAll are welcome. Come for the sit at 6:30\, come for the discussion\, or join us for both. \n“Be your own refuge.”
