“In the beginner’s mind there are many possibilities, but in the expert’s there are few.”
—Shunryu Suzuki, Zen Master and author of Zen Mind, Beginner's Mind
There are many methods, techniques, and teachings transmitted in the process of learning about mindfulness, Buddhism and their application to our everyday lives. But at the end of the day - the direct transmission of the awakened mind - the so-called "beginner's mind" is at the heart of all of them.
Join Senior Buddhist Teacher David Nichtern and Duncan Trussell, comedian and creator of the acclaimed Netflix animated series, The Midnight Gospel, for a provocative and playful online discussion on meditation, the teacher-student relationship, and uncovering the transformative power of "beginner's mind" in every moment.
For those interested in teaching meditation, we will also discuss the upcoming Dharma Moon Mindfulness Meditation Teacher Training program. We will give an overview of the program, and you'll have an opportunity to ask questions, meet the teachers, and find out if the Dharma Moon Meditation Teacher Training might be right for you.
We hope to see you there!
