Our next SBI Study Group
series will continue to provide an opportunity for local residents
who wish to deepen their dharma studies and practice within the support
of a group environment. The SBI Study Group is free and open to all
dharma students; no registration is required. The next meeting
will take place on Saturday, Sept 11th, from 10-1 p.m. The following Saturdays are also scheduled for SBIÕs Study Group meetings in 2010: Oct 2nd,
Nov 13th, and
Dec 4th, from 10-1 p.m.
Under Alan WallaceÕs guidance, Vidya Gauci will
facilitate these monthly meetings, which for the next several months
will focus on ÒGenuine Happiness,Ó by B. Alan Wallace, at his suggestion. Our format includes two meditation practice
sessions, discussion of the monthly reading, a short break and relevant
dharma questions and answers.
For the next meeting of
Sept 11th, the suggested reading is pages 49-75.
Through the kindness of
one of our retreat participants, we are meeting monthly at the Embarcadero
Municipal Improvement District Meeting Center (EMID), a beautiful
public facility in Goleta. The official website of this serene venue
in a quiet residential neighborhood is www.emidsb.org. The address
is 224 Vereda Leyenda, and directions

We look forward to our
next meeting. Please
plan to arrive by 9:45 a.m. so that we may begin promptly by 10.
There is ample chair seating, and if you wish, please bring your
meditation cushions/mat for practice. Light
snacks and tea will be provided. Please
bring your own bottled water. For
any further questions, please contact Vidya Gauci at vidyagauci@cox.net
