SUMMARY:Transforming Our Suffering
DESCRIPTION:Join us for our weekly Buddhism & Mindfulness program\, Transforming Our Suffering. This group meets every Thursday at 10 am and is led by Pamela Patton\, Director of Congregational Ministries. \nWe are currently reading and discussing After the Ecstasy\, the Laundry: How the Heart Grows Wise on the Spiritual Path by Jack Kornfield.. You are most welcome to attend whether or not you’ve done the reading. We start with a short meditation; Pamela summarizes the chapter; Harry Miller reflects on the teachings\, and then we have a discussion (you can choose whether you’d like to go to a breakout room or stay in the main room for a larger group conversation). Each session is standalone\, so you can drop in whenever you wish. \nZOOM LINK \nPassword: Peace \nAbout the book: \n“Enlightenment does exist\,” internationally renowned author and meditation master Jack Kornfield assures us. “Unbounded freedom and joy\, oneness with the divine . . . these experiences are more common than you know\, and not far away.” But even after achieving such realization—after the ecstasy—we are faced with the day—to-day task of translating that freedom into our imperfect lives. We are faced with the laundry.Drawing on the experiences and insights of leaders and practitioners within the Buddhist\, Christian\, Jewish\, Hindu\, and Sufi traditions\, this book offers a uniquely intimate and honest understanding of how the modern spiritual journey unfolds—and how we can prepare our hearts for awakening. Through moving personal stories and traditional tales\, we learn how the enlightened heart navigates the real world of family relationships\, emotional pain\, earning a living\, sickness\, loss\, and death. \nAbout the author:\nJack Kornfield is an internationally renowned Buddhist teacher and meditation master\, and a cofounder of the Insight Meditation Society and of Spirit Rock Center in Northern California. A former Buddhist monk\, he holds a PhD in clinical psychology. His books include A Path with Heart\, Buddha’s Little Instruction Book\, and After the Ecstasy.

SUMMARY:The Big Read at All Souls: Launch Party
DESCRIPTION:Join us at Coffee Hour for the Big Read preview party! Enjoy a short excerpt read by David Rockefeller Jr.\, sample special treats\, & win a book in the raffle. \nWhat’s a Big Read?\nWe’ll all read the same book over the summer\, and starting in the fall\, it will become a touchstone for activities throughout the church year. \nGreat\, what’s the book?\nThe Pulitzer Prize-winning Demon Copperhead by Barbara Kingsolver. It’s a modern-day retelling of Charles Dickens’ David Copperfield\, set in Appalachia. \nCan we really spend a whole year on one book?\nYes! Along with sessions about the book itself\, most activities will use it as a starting point\, exploring themes from community and the natural world to addiction and loss. We’re thinking broadly here – lectures\, workshops\, cooking events\, films\, museum trips\, etc. \nWhat if I haven’t read the book?\nNo problem! You might want to skip the book discussions to avoid spoilers\, but the other events will be open to all\, and these themes are universal. \nThe Big Read concept aims to broaden our understanding of ourselves and our community through the power of a shared reading experience. The goals of the Big Read at All Souls are to inspire meaningful conversations and build stronger connections as a community by exploring a common book and its themes. Get your copy of Demon Copperhead by Barbara Kingsolver and stop by Coffee Hour on June 9th to learn more! \nPlease email Chris Rogutsky if you have any questions: chrisr@allsoulsnyc.org \n

SUMMARY:Transforming Our Suffering
DESCRIPTION:Join us for our weekly Buddhism & Mindfulness program\, Transforming Our Suffering. This group meets every Thursday at 10 am and is led by Pamela Patton\, Director of Congregational Ministries. \nWe are currently reading and discussing After the Ecstasy\, the Laundry: How the Heart Grows Wise on the Spiritual Path by Jack Kornfield.. You are most welcome to attend whether or not you’ve done the reading. We start with a short meditation; Pamela summarizes the chapter; Harry Miller reflects on the teachings\, and then we have a discussion (you can choose whether you’d like to go to a breakout room or stay in the main room for a larger group conversation). Each session is standalone\, so you can drop in whenever you wish. \nZOOM LINK \nPassword: Peace \nAbout the book: \n“Enlightenment does exist\,” internationally renowned author and meditation master Jack Kornfield assures us. “Unbounded freedom and joy\, oneness with the divine . . . these experiences are more common than you know\, and not far away.” But even after achieving such realization—after the ecstasy—we are faced with the day—to-day task of translating that freedom into our imperfect lives. We are faced with the laundry.Drawing on the experiences and insights of leaders and practitioners within the Buddhist\, Christian\, Jewish\, Hindu\, and Sufi traditions\, this book offers a uniquely intimate and honest understanding of how the modern spiritual journey unfolds—and how we can prepare our hearts for awakening. Through moving personal stories and traditional tales\, we learn how the enlightened heart navigates the real world of family relationships\, emotional pain\, earning a living\, sickness\, loss\, and death. \nAbout the author:\nJack Kornfield is an internationally renowned Buddhist teacher and meditation master\, and a cofounder of the Insight Meditation Society and of Spirit Rock Center in Northern California. A former Buddhist monk\, he holds a PhD in clinical psychology. His books include A Path with Heart\, Buddha’s Little Instruction Book\, and After the Ecstasy.
