Recitation of the 5 Mindfulness Trainings
As Thay has shared, "The Five Mindfulness Trainings have their root in the Five Precepts offered by the Buddha. They have been expanded and updated so that they represent a way to bring mindfulness into every area of life. Rather than hard and fast rules, they offer us a framework to reflect on our actions, speech and thinking so we can create more happiness for ourself and for the world around us".
Some questions to perhaps reflect upon as we prepare for Sunday's recitation is, Which of the 5 MTs is most alive for me at the moment in my daily life? What does it mean to be a 'training' rather than a 'rule' to me?
The session will be facilitated by Jan, Judy and Ling.
Would you like to read one of the mindfulness trainings during the recitation? If so please get in touch either by Facebook page or by email on compassionateoceansangha@gmail.com
