Date: | Friday 19th January 2018 |
Time: | 7.30pm - 9.30pm |
Cost: | Free, but donations welcome |
Led by: | Tejasvini and Giulietta |
Description: | We will reflect on our connection to the Earth, to inspire words which we will bring together in a sevenfold puja. |
Through creative writing, we will form a sevenfold puja and carry it out together before a nature-based Green Tara shrine. Cambridge Sangha Action meets once a month to encourage socially aware individuals to come together to discuss how our Buddhist values relate to the challenges in our world, and explore how we could reach out as a Sangha through voluntary activities that could help others. The aims of our meetings are: Acting for the benefit of all beings: to encourage Sangha members to come together to support each other in exploring their altruistic feelings and approaches to the world’s problems. We will explore how Buddhist teachings can help us to respond more wisely and compassionately to a range of issues, both global and local. Sangha building and reaching out: to provide a forum for Sangha members interested in taking social action together, enabling them to promote and facilitate engagement in altruistic events and projects that help others. Education and reflection: to help educate individuals within the Sangha on world issues, and help each other to understand how Buddhist values can help us relate to these challenges. | |
