Dear Dharma Friends,
We are on a modified schedule this week for the Thanksgiving holiday. Our Wednesday evening yidam practice and Thursday evening class are on pause but both will return next week.
Saturday is Vajrasattva practice at 9am. This Sunday we will be offering King of Aspiration Prayers and Jigten Sumgön Guru Yoga practice and meditation at 10am.
The TRTCC Annual Sangha Meeting will be held this year on Sunday, December 15. We will have a potluck lunch following a short break after practice. At the meeting the board will talk about what we have accomplished over the last year and what we hope to accomplish in years to come. There will be time for feedback from attendees and open discussion. Everyone is welcome. Please RSVP here and let us know if you’ll be attending and if you are able to bring a vegetarian dish, fruit, or healthy snack to share.
Please be advised: Masks remain optional for our in person practices at the center but we encourage you to please act with caution. We do ask that only fully vaccinated people come in to the center. We will be running the air purifier in the common area. If you are not feeling well or have had a recent exposure to COVID, please ensure that you are negative with a home test before coming in or please join us online.
May the illumination of wisdom teachings shine through all obscurations of our mind, and may our practices be beneficial to all beings!
