The Mindfulness Practice Community warmly invites you to join us for another week of practicing together. As our beloved teacher, Zen master Thich Nhat Hanh reminds us, practicing alone, we are like a single drop of water which can easily evaporate, but when it joins a river, the collective current carries it safely to the ocean. Practicing within a community, we can flow like a river creating a powerful collective energy of mindfulness and concentration that can sustain us.
“Breathing out, I smile to the sun in me. I am the sun, a star, one of the most beautiful stars in our entire galaxy. I am a child of the sun. I am a star.
— Thich Nhat Hanh”

Dana
Giving (dana) is an essential Buddhist practice. It is about generosity, openness, and our capacity to embrace others with compassion and love. MPC is able to maintain our online presence, our in-person location, and all special events because of the generosity of volunteers and the donations or dana from our beloved community. Dana can come in the form of etransfers to mindfulnesspracticecommunity@gmail.com or at all in-person events. If you are unable to contribute financially, your smile, your practice, and your generous and open heart are enough. You are enough.
