SUMMARY:
DESCRIPTION:A MIGHTY FORCE FOR JOY  Global Celebration of Compassion  \nAUGUST 14-15; 5:00 pm – 5:00 pm Pacific Time \nWe hunger for peace and we need to hear good news.  On August 14-15\, the Charter for Compassion webithon will be offering both.  We will delve into a little history to reflect on the road we have traveled.  There will be stories\, poems\, songs and presentations from partner organizations\, individuals who have supported the Charter as artists and musicians and certainly from the frontlines of our compassionate community and city initiatives.  There is a lot of positive energy that is being shared in the world and our 24-hour webithon is just a preview of what is happening near and far.  We want to offer you moments of reflection\, joy and perhaps a nudge to get involved locally to spread compassionate action locally so its threads can spread globally. \nOf course\, we want to make the webithon free for all\, but we also want to entice you to contribute to keeping the work of the Charter for Compassion on-going.  We will be asking for donations throughout the 24-hours\, but only through placards that will appear on your screen to remain you about the possibility of contributing.  There will be a chat box on Facebook going through the 24-hours.  Let us hear from you.  Please tell your friends\, colleagues\, organizations to which you are close to share the link. Most of the spots you will see are pre-recorded since we don’t have the vast capability to technically host live presentations\, but we assure you that will not diminish the power of the moment.  Looking forward to your presence on August 14-15 and your support.  Register now. \n

SUMMARY:03/26\, 03/31 Spirituality in a Time of Crisis -- FB Live Interfaith Panel Series
DESCRIPTION:COVID-19 has affected all of us in ways that we would not have imagined just a few months ago. As we all work to cope with this challenge\, we are offering a three-part series titled Spirituality in a Time of Crisis. This interfaith series\, featuring female religious leaders as panelists in recognition of Women’s History Month\, will discuss how to take a step back\, reflect\, and understand not only our current situation and the world outside but also ourselves and those we love. Join us in reflection on March 24th\, March 26th\, and March 31st on the ING Facebook page. To receive updates on the series\, register below! \nThursday\, March 26th 7:30 – 8:30 PM PST: Building and Inspiring Fellowship and Community in a Time of Crisis\nIn times of crisis\, news reports are full of stories about neighbors and strangers going out of their way to share food\, rescue pets\, locate loved ones\, and help rebuild what has been lost. In our second panel\, we seek to understand how religious traditions contribute to the displays of compassion\, altruism\, and creative solution-seeking that blossom when disaster strikes communities. \nSpeakers: ING Executive Director Maha Elgenaidi (Muslim)\, Rabbi Amy Eilberg (Jewish)\, Lakshmi Subramanian (Hindu)\, Reverend George Anne McDonnell (Christian)\, and Venerable Tenzin Chogkyi (Buddhist). Facilitator: ING Bay Area Director Ishaq Pathan. \nTuesday\, March 31st 5:00-6:00 PM PST: Reflecting on Gratitude and Faith in a Time of Crisis\nReligious traditions can teach us a lot about the importance of gratitude as a foundation of our life\, even—or perhaps especially—in times of crisis. By funneling our emotions into positive action\, we grow our empathy with others. In our third and final installment of this series\, we learn helpful techniques that allow us to slow down and recognize and give thanks for all the blessings in our lives. \nSpeakers: ING Content Manager Ameena Jandali (Muslim)\, Rabbi Melanie Aron (Jewish)\, Sheila Mohan (Hindu)\, Dianne Muller (Christian)\, and Venerable Tenzin Chogkyi (Buddhist). Facilitator: ING Bay Area Director Ishaq Pathan.

SUMMARY:“Cutting Through to Compassion” an Interfaith Spiritual Retreat
DESCRIPTION:Land of Medicine Buddha retreat center will host an interfaith retreat “Cutting Through to Compassion” \, from Thursday\, August 9 through Sunday\, August 12\, 2018. It starts on Thursday evening and goes through Sunday midday. \nThe retreat will be led by Venerable Tenzin Chogkyi\, Rabbi Diane Elliot\, and Pastor Steve Harms. See Details and Register <http://landofmedicinebuddha.org/events/compassion-interfaith-retreat/>. \nPeople can register to stay onsite or commute.  Please go to link: <http://stay.landofmedicinebuddha.org/plan-your-stay/maps-and-directions/>. \n“What helps you cultivate and sustain buoyancy\, hope\, and inner spaciousness in these turbulent times? How can we help one another cut through the vitriol and violence that erupts daily in our world\, to enter the flow of compassionate understanding that will most effectively source our work for equity\, justice\, and protection for the vulnerable ones in our midst? \nIn this retreat\, the third in the annual “Compassionate Conversations” series\, Venerable Tenzin Chogkyi\, Rabbi Diane Elliot\, and Pastor Steve Harms serve as your guides while\, together\, we mine the wisdom of three spiritual traditions—Buddhism\, Christianity\, and Judaism. Each path offers a wealth of teachings and practices to help us refine our moral compass and grow the awareness\, consistency\, creativity\, and kindness we need to meet the spiritual and practical challenges of our times. \nOur time together will include meditation and movement\, singing and prayer\, textual study and sacred ritual\, focused conversation\, art-making\, silence\, and rest. \n“Compassionate Conversations” is a consortium of spiritual teachers and practitioners\, situating ourselves in different faith traditions (or none). Honoring the particular wisdom of our varied lineage paths\, we come together with a commitment to listening deeply\, sharing practices\, engaging in thoughtful conversations\, expanding our awareness\, and growing our capacities for kindness and understanding. We come together to enhance our humanness\, to celebrate our uniqueness while uncovering what we share in common\, and to bring healing\, joy\, and connectivity into our broken and suffering world.” \n
