Relaxed and Awake: The Feldenkrais Method and Somatic Meditation With Dan Clurman
This class combines body-oriented meditation practice with a Feldenkrais Awareness Through Movement lesson, the brilliant sensory-motor approach to gently and wisely re-educating the neuro-muscular system. Alternating meditation, a Feldenkrais movement lesson and discussion will allow the techniques to complement and empower each other and to enhance mind-body connections and general well-being. Many new and long-time meditators discover that Feldenkrais practices can help them feel greater physical ease and less pain, both in meditation and in everyday activities, by freeing up habitual patterns embedded in the neuromuscular system. For this program, you will need a place to lie down and a chair to sit on. A resource handout will also be available for participants.

A World of Vulnerable Beings: Skillfully Relating to Our Own Power With Kyira Korrigan
This talk highlights the Buddha’s teaching about harm doing—how to understand it and relate to wisely it in our own life and Buddhist practice. In what ways do we minimize the harm we have done, or exaggerate it? In what ways do we confuse our own distress as others’, or vice versa? In this talk we will cover what the Buddha offered as wisdom in relation to harmdoing, recovery from harm being done to, or by, us and adjustments we can make in our perspectives to have more confidence that our future actions will be harmless to life. We will specifically explore how the perfections of character (Paramitas) can be seen as corrections to our tendencies towards harm-doing.

Women in Buddhism: The Story of the Buddha’s First Teaching to Women with Damcho
We will spend this Dharma Sunday in the company of the women who first fought to be included in the audience when Buddha taught. Damchö will narrate that little known story, opening spaces for collective reflection on its implications for the seat women take in Dharma communities today. We might imagine that Buddha’s teachings were directed to all people from the beginning, but that is not the case. Sanskrit sources contain a detailed account of the interventions that women needed to make in order to be able to receive the Dharma from the Buddha. Drawing on material she encountered during research for her doctoral dissertation, Damcho will narrate that story, opening spaces for collective reflection on its implications for the seat women take in Dharma communities today.

The 21 Semdzin with Lama Karma
Dharma Sunday | The 21 Semdzin Online Event With Lama Karma Justin Wall July 19, 2026 The 21 Semdzin are a series of practices found in the Dzogchen Upadesha tantras, using visualization, sonification, and embodiment to release effort and rest in non-meditation. Originally found in the “Reverberation of Sound” and the “Union of the Sun and Moon” tantras of the Upadesha class of Dzogchen, the 21 Semdzin were codified by Longchenpa in the 14th Century. Each semdzin, “lit. holding the mind” is a practice of using light, sound, and embodiment to release grasping and rest in unfabricated presence. This will be the first of a two-part series.

Tongxuan's 100 Chan Questions: Case 16, Nonduality With Kōtatsu John Bailes
Tongxuan: Both wisdom and ignorance have a non-dual nature, but what is the nature of nonduality? Wansong: Even at dawn, it’s not revealed. Linquan: Even at dawn it’s not revealed, Like dragons howling in misty places. By not relying on words, Opportunities to pivot are forever intersecting. Sunlight is about to rise over the ocean, Just as a cloudy haze seems to conceal it.
