Day of Practice

Saturday, September 18th

Deep Belonging: In the Company of All Beings with Martin Aylward

7-10am PDT / 10am-1pm EDT / 3-6pm BST / 4-7pm CEST

Meditation can seem a solitary activity; and yet it opens us to our inherent belonging. We discover that we are not alone, and that our lives unfold in a fundamental kinship with all life.

As Rumi famously said, “You are not a drop in the ocean; you are the entire ocean in a drop.”

During this Day of Practice, Sangha Live’s guiding teacher, Martin, will lead us through meditation that connects us to our beginningless ancestry, to the blessings of earth and sky, and to a felt sense of peace.

Join us in exploring deep belonging as a vital resource for the process of living and dying, caring for the world, and moving through it with love and wisdom.

What is Day of Practice?

Sangha Live’s 3-hour, LIVE Day of Practice allows for you to drop in deeper, develop your meditation skills, and reset your intentions through sustained sitting.

Days of Practice includes longer periods of meditation, interspersed with wise teachings, an interactive Q&A with our teacher, and more.

Replay access is available to all registrants, in case you are unable to join us live or would like to re-watch.

How is Day of Practice different from Sangha Live’s Daily/Sunday classes?

Our shorter Daily Meditation (60 mins) and Sunday Sangha (90 mins) programs emphasize dharma teachings, while our longer Days of Practice (3 hours) emphasize development of meditation practice.

Daily practice is crucial for watering seeds of mindfulness, but extended periods of deep attention such as these, away from the hustle and bustle of daily life, can be uniquely fruitful.

How do I prepare?

If you’ll be using an iPad or iPhone to join us, you’ll need to download the free Crowdcast app in advance. (On any other device, we recommend using Chrome, Firefox, or Edge browsers for best functionality.)

You will want to prepare a space to sit comfortably and quietly for the three-hour duration.

Keep an eye out for our “HOW TO JOIN” email, which includes your personal access link, sent the day prior to the event.

Cost/Generosity

Day of Practice is offered on a sliding scale basis, with a suggested rate of $35. There will also be opportunity to provide dana (generosity) during the event.

Your generosity supports the teacher and their transmission of the Dharma, as well as the accessibility of Sangha Live programming.
