Live-Streamed Taste of Buddhism with Scott Snibbe: “Combatting Coronavirus Fear with Compassion”

Sunday, March 22, 2020 , 10:30 am 12:00 pm

We cling to things as if they won’t change, but change is the nature of reality. It’s only a habit of mind that imposes permanence onto people, possessions, feelings, and relationships, causing us pain when these naturally change or end.With fear and anxiety mounting over the Coronavirus, we present a discussion and guided meditation counteracting fear with compassion.

We’ll share the meditation technique of Taking and Giving (Tonglen) that soothes our own fear and anxiety through imagining how others are suffering just as we are, and sincerely wishing to help, to take away our own and others’ pain.We cling to things as if they won’t change, but change is the nature of reality. It’s only a habit of mind that imposes permanence onto people, possessions, feelings, and relationships, causing us pain when these naturally change or end.
