Mountains Are Mountains--Aren't They?

Among the varied ways of speaking about deep truth, classical Zen style is surely among the more obscure. Many Western students prefer more readily relatable language. Yet Zen offers powerful guidance on the spiritual path and daily living in our tumultuous world. In this talk Susan, who trained in Zen for eight years, including living two years in a Zen monastery, focuses on demystifying the classical Zen style, shedding light on its characteristically terse language, and uncovering an implicit bias that radically shapes the way we relate to life. There will be time for discussion and questions after the talk.

Collectively Navigating Change with Susan Stone (20 Sep 2026)

Sun, 20 Sep 2026 23:00:00 GMT

How can we keep our heads above water and our hearts open when a tsunami of change seems about to overwhelm us? Radical change in foundational national institutions, the biosphere, technology, as well as our personal challenges are issues too vast for anyone to process individually. So we return to the traditional approach of supporting each other collectively. In the small group that Susan Stone will facilitate, we’ll engage in group conversation, rituals, and mindfulness-compassion practices. Participants will have an active role in co-creating the content of the meetings. The group will be invited to recognize the primordial reality of consciousness and how the understanding of change is transformed by this view.

Facilitator: Susan Stone
When: 7:00 – 8:30 p.m., 3 rd Sunday of the month, January – December 2025
Where: In person in Susan’s home (near Rt 29 and Rio Road intersection)

REGISTRATION REQUIRED
