Thursdays 6:00 - 7:00 pmIn-person and via ZoomCalm Abiding MeditationThis 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.
To attend Calm Abiding Meditation via Zoom, email the office at OFFICE@KSCASHLAND.ORG to join the mailing list.
Maryum McKee brought yellow rose shoots with her on the long journey from Missouri to Oregon in 1853. She planted these on a rude homestead out in the Applegate and neighbors propagated the rose throughout the valley. To commemorate Maryum’s journey, the Jacksonville Museum Quilters handcrafted a quilt in 1984 that is a historical representation of the John McKee family and Maryum’s treasured yellow rose. The Jacksonville Museum Quilters gifted this quilt to the Rogue Valley Genealogical Library in 2015. In this special local history event, Anne Billeter will show how Maryum’s Yellow Rose Quilt reflects a woman’s life and a family’s history. Billeter serves as President of the Rogue Valley Genealogical Society
