Jesus, Mindfulness and the Buddha

As we deepen our meditation practice, we encounter the conditioning of our minds by cultural values, attitudes, religious roots etc.  In Western culture, Christianity has played a dominant role in shaping our values and beliefs.

How do we relate to the often subtle but strong influence  of religious conditioning as well as to our opinions, beliefs and attitudes shaped by this conditioning?

This talk is aimed at supporting an ongoing conversation and exploration of questions and reflections that emerge from our early religious and spiritual roots as we practice mindfulness the path of awakening our hearts and minds.

IMCC meets every Tuesday evening for a period of guided meditation and a talk by one of IMCC's experienced meditation teachers.  The program is designed to be suitable and of interest to people with no meditation experience as well as more advanced practitioners. 
       

This week's teacher:  Allie Rudolph
