Description:
Joanne Friday, Chan Lac Thi, is a Dharma teacher in the Tiep Hien Order. She received authority to teach from Thich Nhat Hanh with whom she has studied for the last 17 years. She is one of the founding members of the Clear Heart, Radiant Bell and Mind Tamers Sanghas. Joanne has suggested this as a possible topic for Monday evening's talk: "Taming the Wild Mind...Engaged Buddhist Practices for maintaining our equanimity and joy in uncertain times". However, she also would like to tailor the talk to the attendees specific needs and interests. If you have any questions that you'd like Joanne to address please send them to zen@brown.edu and they will be forwarded to Joanne. If you have any further questions about this event or general questions about the Brown Zen Community please do not hesitate to ask. We look forward to seeing you next Monday!
More about Brown University
Brown University
Brown was the Baptist answer to Congregationalist Yale and Harvard, Presbyterian Princeton, and Episcopalian Penn and Columbia. At the time, it was the only one that welcomed students of all religious persuasions (following the example of Roger Williams, who founded Rhode Island in 1636 on the same principle). Brown has long since shed its Baptist affiliation, but remains dedicated to diversity and intellectual freedom.Post a Countdown Widget
