Description
Led by EBMC’s Men of Color Deep Refuge Group
Together, we will explore the concepts of survival, resistance, and resiliency, and how we can bring balance to the individual and collective male experience in our global community. Through meditation, movement, and discussion, we will explore the subtle components of our masculine energy and uncover our conditioned patterns in order to refine and reconnect to our true nature as men. Navigating the world on our own, we will never be our best; therefore, we invite you to join us in community as we collectively connect and cultivate a deeper understanding of what it means to be mindful men of color.
The East Bay Meditation Center continues the Buddhist tradition of depending on a Generosity-based "All-Dana" model to fund our Center. This means that EBMC does not have specific fees for events, but rather relies on the generosity of individuals to keep the Center operating.
We believe that our Generosity-based model is an essential component of attaining spiritual freedom, and allows the greatest accessibility to the Dharma for the greatest number of people.
All classes at the Center come with a financial cost. When registering, please consider donating to support the center. There is also an opportunity to give Dana at the event. Please note that no one will be turned away for lack of funds. If you would like to explore any EBMC volunteer positions, please send an email expressing your interest to admin@eastbaymeditation.org
EBMC TEACHERS ARE NOT PAID BY THE CENTER. They offer their teaching on a Dana basis and you can offer Dana to them at the class.
