This week we will be meditating together and continuing to look at the emotion of Fear. We will explore how we might become more fearless and how to deepen our Metta practice.
PLEASE NOTE NEW TIMES OF MEETING!
The group meets at The Well at Willen, Milton Keynes, MK15 9AA, from 19:00 – 21:30 this Tuesday evening. No experience necessary. All welcome.
This is just another reminder to join us for discussion about the ongoing needs of our Sangha.
As most of you know, Jayasiddhi & Prajnagatu will be moving on from the Milton Keynes Triratna Sangha over the course of the spring / summer. (Priyadaka having departed is already missed.) As things stand at the moment, this leaves us with no order members to lead the group.
Please come along to the meeting this Thursday with your fresh ideas and enthusiasm. You might like to consider… What do I want from the group and how can we achieve it together?
Kathy has kindly provided us with a venue where we can get together. (It is her office.) We will meet on Thursday 2/4/2015 at 7pm for a cup of tea, to then start the meeting at 7:30pm, wrapping up by 9:00pm.

Looking forward to seeing you there!

We felt that it is important to get together and discuss the ongoing needs of the group and how we will meet these needs. Everybody is invited to come along and discuss the our future together: we are all stakeholders in this community and we all have contributions of value to be shared.
You are encouraged to bring along your ideas for how we can secure the continuation of our group. Be creative! I think JFK said something along the lines of… “Ask not what your Sangha can do for you, ask what you can do for your Sangha!”
