CORYMBIA SANGHA SATSANG
As a sangha community in the secular dharma context, we adopt a democratic, inclusive, and open environment where diverse perspectives and ideas are given space. There is no religious hierarchy or separation of 'lay' versus 'clergy.' Each fortnight, we come together for an hour online as unique persons in community to explore meditation as a way of being in our world, for this time and place and confronting the issues of our day. Through the awakening of calm, insight, and compassion afforded by a meditative practice, we allow the nirvanic moments of our lives to touch every aspect of existence. No longer entrapped by reactive emotions and thoughts, we can act creatively for a flourishing culture of awakening in our world.
SECULAR DHARMA RETREATS
To deepen and enrich our meditative practice, we may come together for a two-hour online retreat four times a year (approximately once every three months). Drawing upon a vast variety of traditions including gems of literature, poetry, and tropes from diverse cultures, we meet for guided and silent meditation as a sangha to heighten our sensitivity for life, meet each moment anew, and co-enact a more mindfully gentle way of living conducive to a new culture of awakening. From Shakespeare to Rumi; T. S. Eliot to Huineng; Longchenpa to Don Cupitt; Stephen Batchelor to Kitaro Nishida--we avail ourselves to the wealth of literary and cultural wisdoms bequeathed to us by the many voices of time present and time past.
INQUIRING BEYOND DOGMA
Beyond regular group meditations and retreats, we may meet twice a year (once every six months) for a two-hour online workshop to explore and inquire into topical issues of life and death, love and loss, happiness and sorrow, existence and non-existence, creation and evolution, science and faith, society and nature, humanity and climate, religion and authority, and more. Each session comprises a guided meditation, dharma talk by the facilitator, and a time of mindful loving communication of ideas and passions. Rather than fixated on getting answers, we learn as a sangha to be comfortable with questions, wonderment, perplexity, and ennui, so that life emerges as an ever-creative horizon to be lived more than a problem to be solved.
