Welcome to the
Insight Meditation South Bay discussion forum and greetings to all. It is a joy to launch our new web site and this discussion forum.
This forum is a place for participants to pose questions that are relevant to meditation practice, share reflections, support the growth of spiritual community, and discover ways of exploring the dhamma together.
In your dialogs please remember the basic guidelines that the Buddha taught:
If speech has five marks it is well spoken, not badly spoken, blameless and above reproach by the wise. What are these five marks? It is speech that is timely, true, gentle, purposeful and spoken with a mind of loving-kindness.-- Anguttara Nikaya V.198 or Middle Length Discourses 21.11
May our discussions here support the growth of a wise and compassionate community, and provide inspiration that deepens the spiritual practice of all who enter into this conversation.
Good wishes for all,
shaila catherine
