The Historical Buddha taught that finding deep satisfaction, enjoyment and nourishing happiness is essential to living well and progressing on the path, as well as diminishing suffering. These elements of healing and becoming whole are not, in other worlds, something we experience only after we have “crossed the river of suffering.” This one-day retreat will explore how Buddhist psychology, and specific teachings and methods, help us embody this way of understanding practice and life. The day will be led by Dennis Warren, founding teacher of Sacramento Insight Meditation. For further biographical information go to https://sactoinsight.org/about-us/faculty/
