Dharmabytes Podcast #1190 "There’s Seeing, And Then There’s Really Seeing"

Eightfold Path

We are coming to the close of Venerable Juewei's first month in the Wisdom series. To round out the month, we are delighted to have Venerable guide us in a meditation together which will be at least a 30 minute session. The session will ask us to contemplate:

 "Is the Noble Eightfold Path a map or a mirror?"

Most people approach the Eightfold Path as a list of “right” things to strive for. But in this meditation session, we flip that. We slow down. We inhabit the path as subtle reflections of how we are already moving, choosing, relating. 

Due to some technical issues, Zoom will require a one-off re-registration for attendees after 18th July.  You can do so here and will receive a new link in your email to click to join the meeting. (If you have registered after 18th July, you can use the link you have received already rather than re-registering). 

Is the Noble Eightfold Path a map or a mirror?

Thanks for supporting us through the lockdown! 🙏🏻
