Sunday Sangha – 20th July 2025

Stephen Fulder

This session is led by Stephen Fulder.

Start Time: 11 am PDT (LA) / 2 pm EDT (NY) / 7 pm BST (London) / 8 pm CEST (Paris). 90-minute live session.

This week’s theme: Is Samsara Fixable?

We are going through difficult and uncertain times and we long for relief. There is much we can do to help ourselves and our community.
Yet this can also include accessing a more transcendent perspective, in which we take the pains of samsara less personally. Nondual dharma invites us to see life as perfect just as it is and yet transform the way we receive it moment by moment.

This session is freely-offered, but dana/donations are invited to help us meet our substantial running costs and to support our teachers. To donate, please click here. We appreciate your generosity 🙏
