Be-In / Thay's Continuation Day

Dear Friends, please feel welcome to join COS as we gather for another joyous 'Be In' led by Lena and Ling.

​

Not only a Be-In - it’s Thay’s continuation day… !!!

he will turn 100 - Please bring photos, experiences, learnings, insights to our Be - In and make Thay proud to be alive in us.

​

I will show a small part of a video where he says he will continue in us…

Come dressed to meet Thay in each other and make it a special celebration. Be beautiful be ourselves be mindful.

​

Over the years, our Be-Ins have bloomed with creativity and warmth: songs that made us sway, bush poetry that made us laugh, skits about interbeing, spontaneous dances, and tender Dharma reflections. Love letters to this life, this practice, this moment - Just being...

This one is very special - This one is for Thay!

​

We hope you can join us and look forward to hearing everyone's insights

​

Our theme for October 2026 is:
The Insight that Brings Us to the Other Shore

Understanding the Sutra: Verse 8
Whoever can see this
No longer needs anything to attain.

​

Understanding the Sutra: Verse 9:
Bodhisattvas who practice
The Insight that Brings Us to the Other Shore
See no more obstacles in their mind,
and because there are no more obstacles in their mind
They can overcome all fear
Destroy all wrong perceptions
And realize Perfect Nirvana.
