Bringing Mindfulness and Compassion into the World, Jan. 27

Bringing Mindfulness and Compassion into the World, Jan. 27

By Hugh Byrne | Jan 24 2012
Following up on the Engaged Dharma/Compassionate Washington DC meeting in early December, we will be meeting again this coming Friday to explore ways of bringing mindfulness and compassion to help heal our world.

We will meet on Friday, Jan 27 from 7:30 - 9:30 p.m. at Lil Omm Yoga in Tenleytown, DC (4708 Wisconsin Ave, NW--two blocks north of Tenleytown metro).

The main focus of Friday's meeting will be on bringing mindfulness and compassion into schools in our area and to support military veterans. We will also hear updates of work in other areas (e.g., prisons, social justice, environment) and continue to explore ways of channeling these efforts into a Compassionate DC campaign.

Please join us on Friday--and if you are not able to come but are involved or interested in working in either of these (or other) areas, please email me.

If you were not able to attend December's meeting and would like to find out what we discussed, please see the videos of our meeting on the IMCW Talks page.

May our efforts help to build a more compassionate world.


Warmest wishes,

Hugh Byrne, Guiding Teacher, IMCW 

& the Compassionate Washington DC Dharma Team
