(Cambridge Insight Meditation Center) Through study of the Meghiya Sutta, we’ll explore why the Buddha insisted that awakening happens in community, not in isolation. Through personal stories of transformation, Devon will describe the five essential conditions Buddha outlined for waking up. This talk weaves together ancient wisdom with modern pilgrimage, showing how our most challenging moments can become our greatest sources of strength when we practice accompaniment rather than abandonment. Come explore how the gradual path unfolds like a sacred journey, one step at a time, with fellow travelers by our side.
