- Brief hello
- 30-minute meditation sit - brief instructions will be shared and then we will all sit silently together as a community online.
- Check-in: Each person to say their name, where they are from, and either how they feel and/or a brief insight, question, or comment that would like to share.
- Sharing/learning - Kensho will briefly share a passage, poem, and/or message.
- Closing
No RSVP is needed and this time will just be reserved every Tuesday 5-6 pm.
Guidelines for Zoom:
-
Need to click on ‘Allow Computer Audio’. Make sure your sound is on. Also, make sure you’re not muted in Zoom when talking.
-
Please Mute when not speaking (only speak only during check-in and not during silent meditation)
-
Unplug from all electronic media and distractions (except ZOOM)
-
If there’s a phone number shown for your name, please click ‘participants’ at the bottom of the screen, hit the ‘rename’ button on the right-hand side of the screen and change this to your name so we know who is on the line – If you have a Dharma name use that first and then your legal name.
-
If you want to project your beautiful image on video, make sure you have a camera on your computer and you allow video in the bottom left-hand corner of Zoom.
-
There’s a chat button at the bottom to chat if you are having an audio/video issue or about anything else.
-
if you have conflicts or can only make part of the activities, please arrive and leave silently.
-
If you MUST be doing something distracting, turn off your ZOOM camera and audio until done, and then turn it back on.
This session will be led by Kensho Len Silverston.
This meditation gathering via a Zoom site provides a convenient connection and support vehicle for your practice, and if you choose the video option, you can see us and vice versa.
