End of Year 2020 Community Gathering
End of Year Meditation and Reflection with Peter Russell
It has been a challenging and, at times, deeply disorienting year. Our fragile human world has seen so much upheaval! But in our concern with what is ending and questions about what seems to be beginning, we can lose sight of this precious present moment enveloped in mystery.
In the presence of the unknown, our frightened human mind often grasps for certainty, knowledge, theories, opinions, which in turn produce more righteousness, separation, division, and even hostility.
We invite you to come together and meet beyond our naming minds, listen to silence, feel the aliveness in our bodies, and remember our deep interconnectedness with all living beings.
Peter Russell lead a meditation, settling us back into the calm of our own being. Then we took time to reflect together on the gifts and challenges of the year and the possibilities that are now open before us.
