The Grace in Living:
Recognize it, Trust It, Abide In It
June 10-11, 2017

This weekend will be an opportunity to explore our own lives from a radically new perspective--one that allows the recognition of the ever-presence of grace.

As we get a sense of our own spiritual biographies, we have the opportunity to recognize that, although our attention has often been absent from grace, grace has always been with and within us. As we grow in our capacity to trust in it, we can begin to abide in the peace, wisdom, and compassion that characterize our own essential nature.

Through teachings, reflection, group experience, and dialogue, we will come to realize that we are already awakening beings and to hold that recognition with humility, dignity, and gratitude.

Cost: $135
Special rate for students $75; contact info@northeastguild.org for more info.

Kathleen Dowling Singh is a longtime dharma practitioner and teacher.  She is the author of The Grace in Dying:  How We Are Transformed Spiritually As We Die, The Grace in Aging:  Awaken As You Grow Older, and The Grace in Living.  Her new book, Unbinding: The Path to Grace will be released in October.

 She speaks in broad language about spiritual transformation and meditative/contemplative practices, the ever-presence of grace, aging as spiritual opportunity, and the spiritual transformations at the end of life.
