SUMMARY:Sunday Open House Meditation Gatherings
DESCRIPTION:On Sunday mornings the Westchester Meditation Center will host a community gathering involving meditation practice\, readings\, and discussion. The theme of this season of Open House is How to Meditate\, inspired by Pema Chodron’s book\, How to Meditate: A Practical Guide to Making Friends with Your Mind. \nWhy meditate? Let’s explore. \nWhen situations bother us we always feel we need to change the situation to improve our circumstances. But does that really work? How many situations must we change to achieve the level of comfort we aspire to? We will never fully be able to restrain external phenomena\, but we can restrain our minds. Indeed\, working with our mind is the only means through which we’ll actually find harmony and contentment with the world that we live in. \nMeditation provides a golden key to address this yearning. During our winter open house\, we will review chapter by chapter Pema Chodron’s book\, How to Meditation\, which provides a step-by-step guide to how we can meet and openly relate with our mind\, embrace the fullness of our experience\, and live a wholehearted life. \nAt each gathering\, you will practice for two sessions with walking meditation in between\, share reading and have a group discussion. \nCost: Free – Donations Welcome \nMore Info: Here

SUMMARY:One-Day Meditation Workshop
DESCRIPTION:Join the Westchester Meditation Center for this special one-day program designed for beginning and aspiring meditators\, as well as people who want to deepen their meditation practice. The workshop will include talks\, practice sessions\, and guided meditations that support building a daily practice with compassion and openness. This workshop will be led by one of WMC’s three senior teachers\, Jane Kolleeny. \nWMC is dedicated to diversity\, equity\, inclusion\, and fostering belonging for all. Everyone is invited. Differences and unique perspectives are embraced. \nThe meditation technique taught in this workshop was developed by Chogyam Trungpa Rinpoche (1939-87)\, a Tibetan Buddhist meditation teacher who offered a uniquely different form from other forms of meditation and in many ways contrary to the usual notions about meditation. His view was that “meditation is a process of working through our self-deception.” Chogyam Trungpa Rinpoche was a highly accomplished meditation master\, scholar\, translator\, poet\, and artist. He taught extensively in North America during the last seventeen years of his life and authored dozens of books based on hundreds of talks given on a broad array of topics. Many people of many generations have found his guidance inspiring to their daily lives and meditation practice. \nIf you have any questions\, please email westchestermeditationcenter@gmail.com. \nSuggested Donation: $30 (includes lunch) \nSpace is limited; registration is required. \nRegister: HERE

SUMMARY:The Battle of Science and Spirituality in the Western World
DESCRIPTION:DISCOVER THE SCIENTIST AND ROMANTIC WITHIN with Jeff Carreira \nIn the development of Western history we see evidence that seems to show that there exists two different types of human temperaments. One is romantic\, artistic\, and spiritual\, the other is factual\, logical\, and scientific – and they often see things very differently. In this presentation and discussion you will discover how at the very start of Western philosophy a fundamental division was set in place because Plato was a dreamer\, and his student Aristotle was a scientist. This split in our psyche propagated through the entire history of Western philosophy and now in modern times we see it in the deep-seated clash between science and religion. \nJoin this event held live at The Aligned Center and streamed online via zoom video conferencing\, to take a fascinating journey through some of the ways that human beings have attempted to understand what we know\, how we know it\, and why it matters. You will see that inside yourself you have both a scientist and a romantic. One that is a champion of the supremacy of facts gained through objective evidence\, and one that trusts their own inner revelations and creative impulses above anything else. \nThis is an in-person and online event. \nCost: Free \nRegister: Here

SUMMARY:Qigong with Robert Peng
DESCRIPTION:Robert Peng\, a world-renowned Qigong Master and healer\, was born and raised in Hunan\, China. \nAt age eight\, he began an intensive apprenticeship under the close guidance of the legendary monk Xiao Yao\, an enlightened master known for his profound healing ability and martial arts skill. At age 15\, Robert endured a 100-day water fast in a small dark room at a secluded monastery in the remote mountains of Hunan province\, which initiated a radical spiritual transformation and awakened amazing healing powers. \nAfter pursuing his training quietly while attending university in Changsha\, he began to teach publicly at 29\, and within five years had trained over 150\,000 students all over China\, Australia\, and the U.S. \nWith his deep understanding and practice of Qigong\, and with extensive life and teaching experience in the Western world\, Robert has developed a unique way to teach Qigong that people from different cultures can easily understand and follow while enjoying the real essence of this ancient Chinese healing art of wisdom\, love\, and vitality. \nThis is an in-person event. \nCost: $69.99 \nRegister: Here

SUMMARY:Sunday Open House Meditation Gatherings
DESCRIPTION:On Sunday mornings the Westchester Meditation Center will host a community gathering involving meditation practice\, readings\, and discussion. The theme of this season of Open House is How to Meditate\, inspired by Pema Chodron’s book\, How to Meditate: A Practical Guide to Making Friends with Your Mind. \nWhy meditate? Let’s explore. \nWhen situations bother us we always feel we need to change the situation to improve our circumstances. But does that really work? How many situations must we change to achieve the level of comfort we aspire to? We will never fully be able to restrain external phenomena\, but we can restrain our minds. Indeed\, working with our mind is the only means through which we’ll actually find harmony and contentment with the world that we live in. \nMeditation provides a golden key to address this yearning. During our winter open house\, we will review chapter by chapter Pema Chodron’s book\, How to Meditation\, which provides a step-by-step guide to how we can meet and openly relate with our mind\, embrace the fullness of our experience\, and live a wholehearted life. \nAt each gathering\, you will practice for two sessions with walking meditation in between\, share reading and have a group discussion. \nCost: Free – Donations Welcome \nMore Info: Here
