Dear friends,
You are invited to attend the monthly Day of Mindfulness (DOM) on
August 23, 2008 (Saturday). The monthly Day of Mindfulness is a
regular activity organized by and for mindfulness practitioners in
the tradition of Thich Nhat Hanh (Thay) and Plum Village. It
normally falls on the 4th Saturday of each month. We are truly
grateful that Centre for Religious and Spirituality Education (CRSE)
of HKIEd has served as the co-organiser of DOM since June, 2007 and
has provided a very nice environment to support our practices.
Many participants found the DOMs in previous months very fruitful and
enjoyable. The DOM will be facilitated by lay practitioners in Hong
Kong, with the intentions that by working together and sharing
experiences with other members of the Sangha, our practices and
brotherhood/sisterhood will grow, thus help make the Sangha stronger.
It is a day for us to be together, to enjoy our presence and the blue
sky, the mountains, and to share our happiness and practice.
The programme of the coming DOM is as follows:
9:00 Walking meditation (Meet outside the Quiet Room of CRSE )
10:00 Dharma Talk (watch video of Thay¡¦s talk)
12:00 Lunch (Please bring your own vegetarian packed lunch)
13:00 Rest
14:00 Total Relaxation/Touching the Earth
14:45 Mindfulness Training Recitation (with sitting and chanting)
16:00 Dharma discussion
17:00 Farewell
