9/21/2014 – Compassion and Authentic Connection

This Sunday, Jessica guided our reflections, with a focus on Compassion.  There are many ways of relating to the suffering of others, some skillful, many not so skillful.  Compassion, the second of the Brahma Viharas, is the fullest, most intimate and open-hearted way.  Excerpts from Mark Coleman’s Dharma talk and guided meditation on Compassion anchored the presentation and discussion, and can be found at
