(Spirit Rock Meditation Center) This meditation is offered as a support to the situation in the Ukraine and the 1-year commemoration of the Atlanta shootings. Incorporating phrases from Soto Zen's Enmei Jukku Kannon Gyo chant resonate in our meditation. It's a chant used to ask for support from the Bodhisattva of Compassion Kannon/Kanzeon.

Rev. Keiryu Lien Shutt: Enmei Jukku/Well-being Chant Meditation

The teachings of the Buddha (Dharma) and the practices of Insight Meditation (Vipassana) and loving-kindness meditation (metta) are at the heart of all the programs we offer at Spirit Rock. Practicing Insight Meditation develops mindfulness, the capacity to pay attention to each moment of life and to see clearly the truth of our experience. Studying the Dharma provides insights into the conditions that define and limit our experience of life. And cultivating an attitude of loving-kindness allows us to stay present to what's true and what's difficult in our lives with compassion for ourselves and others. Ultimately, our relationship to life is transformed as we learn to live more wisely and kindly.
