Intention and Vow Workshop
January 06, 2018 @ 9:00 am - 4:00 pm

Uchiyama Roshi:
Our present direction is clearly defined but without having a goal. When we stop projecting goals and hopes in the future, and refuse to be led around by them, yet work to clarify our lives, that is, the “direction” of the present, then we discover an alive and dynamic practice.
This workshop will help clarify what direction we are guiding ourselves in our life. It is not like a New Year’s Resolution, which never comes to fruition. It is not our “goals.” We will clarify our heart’s desire. What is the deepest longing and meaning of our lives? If we followed our hearts desire, what would that look like in the coming year? Can a vow come out of our deepest longing? Our inquiry will include meditation, writing and sharing, to develop some personal intentions for the next year.
