Shantideva Sangha Gathering

Saturday, October 19 @ 9:30 am 3:00 pm

We invite anyone in the community to join our practice from 9:30 a.m. to 3 p.m. on the following dates: July 20, September 7, October 19, and November 16. (Note: usually the third Saturday of each month.)

For October 19, we are adding an optional recitation of the 14 Mindfulness Trainings to our afternoon schedule, at 1:30pm. All are welcome to stay for this, or do other activities, as conditions permit.

We aspire that Shantideva will become a resource and anchor for our broad and diverse Bay Area and Northern California communities. Gathering at Shantideva is a chance for people from our many different sanghas to practice together in friendship, and to create opportunities for honest and vulnerable discussion.

Please email Dylan if you’re planning to attend.
