Online: A Path of Devotion
with Oren Jay Sofer
Friday, July 23rd, 2021 | 7:00pm – 8:30pm ET
The Buddha taught a complete way of life that includes more than meditation and ethics. A core part of the Noble Eightfold Path is cultivating a heart that is enriched by qualities like faith, confidence, and devotion.
How can we understand these qualities and their relevance on the path in modern life today? What resources do we have to access a meaningful connection with them in our lives?
Join author and meditation teacher Oren Jay Sofer for this evening of practice and exploration. He will also be leading a full day program, “The Heart of Devotion” on the following Saturday, July 24th. See below for a combined registration at a discount.
