Casual meetings once a month (except December) to increase awareness of the work Community Works does for survivors of domestic and sexual violence, stalking, and human trafficking in Jackson County, Oregon, and to further the mission of Community Works. Each month we explore new subjects that are educational and offer opportunities for interesting discussion. Along with this, we have project ideas for helping to lift our clients and the community. Community Works is here to bring HOPE, SUPPORT, and EMPOWERMENT to those impacted by violence.

We are a Zen practice community in the Diamond Sangha lineage founded by Robert Aitken Rōshi. We provide zazen(meditation) instruction, weekly zazen, practice talks, Dharma discussions and more.

Calm Abiding Meditation
This meditation is common to many traditions of Buddhism. In this practice, we rest our attention on a simple meditative support, such as the breath. Instead of following thoughts and emotions as we usually do, we release them and maintain our connection to the support.

“From this practice, we can experience a stable and calm mind. We learn to maintain and return to a sense of stillness, no matter what our outer circumstances. The mind is relaxed, alert and aware. The results of this practice are serenity, freedom in the face of circumstances, and ultimately Buddhahood.”

From Meditation for Beginners, by Bokar Rinpoche.

The most viewed film on Netflix when it debuted last month, "A House of Dynamite" depicts in realistic detail what would happen if our warning systems detected a single nuclear-armed missile launched by an unknown adversary heading toward Chicago. This scenario isn’t far-fetched. Each day there is some likelihood that, by accident or by intention, one of the nine countries possessing nuclear weapons and the missile systems to deliver them will launch an attack. Such an attack will probably be the start of the end of human life.
With the last remaining bi-lateral treaty between the U.S. and Russia—the New START Treaty—set to expire on February 5, 2026, the risk of a renewed offensive nuclear arms race and thus of a nuclear holocaust will increase dramatically unless something is done. Screening the film is one way Peace House is trying to motivate people in our area to take action.
