Green Tara Teaching with Charlotte Besch Postponed from Saturday, April
5th, to Saturday, May 10th
Because of
a family trip, the Green Tara Teaching will be postponed until Saturday,
May 10th. I apologize for any inconvenience this causes anyone. Please
come on May 10th. --Charlotte Besch
The
practice of Green Tara is one of the most popular practices of Tibetan
Buddhism. Tara practices help build compassion, especially towards
ourselves, and help alleviate fear. This short teaching will go over
the general practice of Tara including the 21 Tara practice. The
practices of Green Tara, Red Tara, and Black Tara will also be offered.
The teaching will be 10:00-11:30 a.m. Refreshments and tea will be
served. Donations for the teachings would be wonderful! Come and learn
more about this wonderful practice of compassion. Please contact
Charlotte Besch at 551-5135 or at
cabesch@midsouth.ualr.edu.

Children's Program
Third Sunday of the month
at 4:00 pm at EBS Center - We sit in a circle and start by
breathing with the bell, walking together and then listen to a story read
from a Buddhist children's book. Then we share fresh fruit, serve in a tea
ceremony style, and introduce ourselves and share mindful conversation,
using bows to begin and end. Contact

caused by some form of email "Spam" filtering. We have had a number of
"failed" deliveries. If you have this sent to you at your business email, it
will need to be dealt with through them. If through a personal address, it
is probably done through your ISP. You may also need to re-send me your
