No culture has yet solved the dilemma each has faced with the growth of a conscious mind: how to live a moral and compassionate existence when one is fully aware of the blood, the horror inherent in all life, when one finds darkness not only in one's own culture, but within oneself. If there is a stage at which an individual life becomes truly adult, it must be when one grasps the irony in its unfolding and accepts the responsibility for a life lived in the midst of such paradox.  

There are simply no answers to some of the great pressing questions. You continue to live them out, making your life a worthy expression of leaning into the light.

To Be Here Now

Triangle Insight 
Meditation Group s

All levels of meditation experience are welcome and the teachings are offered free of charge, with donations accepted to cover costs of using the facility and to support the study of the teachers. 

In this time of continuing uncertainty, Triangle Insight is committed to offering a safe and stable refuge for the Sangha as a whole. Until we are able to meet again at the Episcopal Center, Triangle Insight will use Zoom for meditation meetings and for study or social group activities. Please refer to the Zoom information below.     
 
This new way to connect is evolving through practice and compassion as we look inward and outward for the clarity that vipassana practice will bring.

Triangle Insight Welcomes You
Welcoming Committee News
Sangha means spiritual community, and it is treasured because without it awakening cannot be sustained."
          Jack Kornfield, After the Ecstasy, the Laundry   
 
The Welcoming Committee wishes to foster the experience of belonging to a diverse, tolerant community connected through mindfulness practice, where all feel welcome and safe. We seek to link all members and newcomers to ongoing activities and to ensure the Zoom connection is available.  
  • We have developed a brochure to give an overview of our sangha and some of its activities. You can 
    download it here: Welcome to Triangle Insight.
     
  • Someone from the Welcoming Committee will remain on the Zoom connection at the end of Wednesday evening sangha meetings, should anyone have a question or want to talk about a sangha-relevant topic. 
     
  • A Welcoming Committee member now monitors the all-purpose email: info@triangleinsight.org to answer questions about the sangha, newsletter subscription, teacher availability, and Triangle Insight's meeting schedules. If we don't have an answer, we will put you in touch with someone who does. 
  • If you would like to join the Welcoming Committee as a dana gesture of support for the Triangle Insight Community, please let us know through the still-active email: welcome@triangleinsight.org.  
  With shared commitment to the dharma, we hope our work will be of benefit to all who join us in this practice.

Scholarship Support for Training Programs and Workshops in Racial Justice and Diversity
Engaging Buddhist teachings and real-world issues

Aligned with our efforts to engage Buddhist teachings with real-world issues, the TIMC Board would like to offer financial assistance to sangha members who wish to participate in training programs or other activities designed to address racial conditioning, implicit bias, and racial inequality. 

A General Scholarship Fund for this purpose exists through donations from the TIMC General Fund and the generosity of several Triangle Insight members.

In previous years, this Scholarship Fund has helped offset registration fees for some Sangha members who attended the anti-racism  training program offered by the non-profit, Organizing Against Racism NC. It also supported the participation of TI members in a 3-day Mindful of Race workshop with Ruth King. 

White Awake  is another organization that holds ongoing courses. They are currently conducting an online study group that has filled, and is now closed, but will be offering more online programs in the fall.  

If sangha members would like to receive scholarship support for training with OARNC, White Awake, or other programs addressing racial injustice , please email the Board at   board@triangleinsight.org .

We are also interested in your suggestions for other training programs that might be of interest to sangha members, including training in climate-related problems.
  • The goal of this scholarship initiative is to help individuals and the community deepen their understanding of how unexamined views of race can limit the mind and human systems. 

For questions about this initiative, if you would like to be considered for a scholarship, or wish to contribute to the Scholarship Fund, please connect with us by email:  board@triangleinsight.org

Who's Doing What (a growing list)

YOGA for JUSTICE,  a fundraising class in gentle yoga  led by  Marci Lew, 
Certified Yoga Instructor and TI Sangha member  

On Saturday July 18th (Nelson Mandela Day)
3:00-4:00 PM on Zoom, with link provided following donation

Marci's desire to actively support and be an ally to the Black Lives Matter movement inspired her to use her talent for teaching yoga to benefit the Freedom Fighter Bond Fund, a project that provides bond money and legal defense costs for activists facing arrest and legal jeopardy for causes related to racial, social, gender, economic, and environmental injustice." The Freedom Fighter Bond Fund is a timely project of Emancipate NC, a Durham-based non-profit whose mission is "Dismantling Structural Racism and Mass Incarceration Across North Carolina."

All Yoga for Justice registration fees will support the Freedom Fighter Bond Fund.

Vote
Buddhists Help Get Out the Vote

Please be reminded

The Triangle Insight Board wants you to be aware of an open letter penned by Buddhist leaders on May 13th, encouraging Americans to vote in the upcoming elections, along with other steps that may be taken related to this effort. We fully endorse and wish to disseminate this message as much as possible.

An Open Letter to Buddhist Communities
This is a truly critical time in American society. We are in the midst of a global pandemic, financial collapse, climate change emergency, and approaching a November election that threatens to exclude many eligible voters. As Buddhist teachers and leaders, we recognize that every vote and voice needs to be heard to help guide the next years of our society wisely.

A mutual caring community is one of the central teachings of the Buddha. In these times so marked by divisiveness and a lack of compassionate leadership, many of you have wondered how you and your whole community can help move us in this direction. Here are two crucial activities to encourage for everyone in your community:

❖ Register to vote; and sign up for an absentee ballot: You and your community can do this through Vote.org. Over thirty states now have no-excuse absentee voting, and many others are considering allowing COVID-19 as a valid excuse.

❖ Get your friends and family to register, sign up for an absentee ballot, and vote.

FOR MORE OPPORTUNITIES TO ACT in Voter Registration and Support, please read the full CALL with the names of 100+ Buddhist leaders, published in full on Tara Brach's website.

caringcircles  
Caring Circles 
A Sangha Support Initiative 
To keep the Sangha connected and strengthen the bonds of our shared practice, several years ago Triangle Insight created a mechanism for the exchange of services called Caring Circles. Although we have not often used this initiative of the currently inactive Shramadana Project, the time has come to revive it to our mutual benefit in the face of coping with COVID-19 uncertainties.
 
Now, as then, its goal is to offer a simple means for members of the Triangle Insight community to request aid for everyday concerns from a roster of other members who wish to volunteer their assistance as a form of dana service.
 
Assistance can take as many forms as there is need, such as:
  • Grocery shopping or prepared meals
  • Laundry help, if no machine available
  • Help with transportation to grocery store
  • Pick up Rx or other items
  • Connect by telephone, Zoom or another safe means to talk, listen, and just share time
  • Computer fixes that may be done remotely
  • Lawn care that may be needed
  • Supplement toys or other diversions for children.
To request aid you may send an email to caringcircles@triangleinsight.org, or directly to a coordinator,  Gordy Livermore  and  Mary Mudd .   You may also use the Caring Circles Request for Assistance Form  (optional). 
 
When the sangha returns to the Episcopal Center, you will still be able to email requests. You also can put your request in a box on the bookshelf (back hallway), or hand it to either coordinator.
 
To volunteer as a Caring Circles helper, please contact a coordinator at caringcircles@triangleinsight.org for more details.
 
Responding to a Request  
Upon receiving a request, a coordinator will verify the information with you if necessary, then send it to the list of Sangha member volunteers. Anyone on the list may contact you to discuss your request. Specific plans are entirely up to you. 
 
Please note in your initial communication if the request is of a sensitive nature; the coordinator will make special arrangements with you.
  
Caring Circles coordinators welcome your requests. 

You can also find this information on the Shramadana webpage.

TIM SPIRITUAL FRIENDS GROUPS
SpiritualFr
Spiritual Friends Groups
 
Having admirable people as friends, companions, and colleagues is actually th e whole of the holy life.
 
 
- The Buddha
 
Our Kalyana Mitta and Racial Affinity groups are small peer groups of individuals who are committed to supporting one another in their practice and spiritual journey.  In her article, Belonging: Polishing the Third Jewel - Sangha ,"  Ruth King notes that, 

". . . we need each other to wake up, to know intimately whether our practice is actually our practice. We discover this from our relationship to life and to each other. . . . Your practice is not just about you or your individual awakening; your practice is about how you benefit (or not) the quality of our collective - of sangha."
 
This is the heartfelt intention of our Kalyana Mitta and Racial Affinity groups, in which we are committed to our own path, to the spiritual growth of all members, and to the awakening of the larger community.
 
racialaffinity 

Known as RAGs, Racial Affinity groups allow people to deepen self-awareness around issues of race in small, racially homogeneous groups. As we face our long history of systemic racism and violence against people of color, RAGs provide a safe space where members can integrate the dharma into their exploration of racial belonging and racial habits of harm.   
   
Waking up to the realities of racial legacy, conditioning, and systems is a challenging process, and the acceptance we bring each other, as well as our shared understanding of the dharma, help us to heal and act more skillfully in the world.  To support this process, groups follow Triangle Insight's  Mindful Sharing Guidelines and  Ruth King's Racial Affinity Group Guidelines .
 
If you are interested in joining a Racial Affinity group or would like more information, please contact Beth Lauderdale, our RAG Coordinator. She can be reached at  marybethboswell@yahoo.com

Helpful articles and other resources are available on our   Racial Affinity Groups  web page.



We currently have openings in three Kalyana Mitta (KM) Groups: Insight Dialogue, Secular Dharma, and Raleigh.

The Chapel Hill-Carrboro and Durham Young Adults groups each have a waiting list. 

Details about each group are on the " List of KM Groups" web page. If you would like more information or want to join a group, be on a waiting list, or start a new group, please speak with Sarah Tillis, KM Coordinator, or write Sarah at  sarah@triangleinsight.org

Information about the KM program is available on the KM web page.

***********************
The KM-RA Coordinating Team of Sarah Tillis, Beth Lauderdale, and Tamara Share expresses deep gratitude for the dedication of our sangha. May our Kalyana Mitta and Racial Affinity groups be of great benefit to all.

The Shramadana Project           
A Volunteer Initiative  of Triangle Insight

NEW   The  Caring Circles Initiative is being revived, and is ready to receive requests for assistance from Sangha members. See above for information.
 
HISTORY
The Shramadana Project (SP) has been a volunteer initiative of the Triangle Insight Meditation Community to address some of the interests for connecting within the sangha and for outreach to the community-at-large. 
 
This project has outgrown its current form and now needs to evolve into a more meaningful structure. Some activities including Media Night, workshops and retreats would fit well with a "Programs Committee," yet to be formed. Other volunteer opportunities might better fit with a group or committee for "Engaged Buddhism" or "Community-at-Large Activities," or others yet to be created. 

Ideas on how to organize these activities are welcome and should be sent to  info@triangleinsight.com. 

ARCHIVE
Past activities, meeting minutes and the list of community organizations for the SP are available on the SP webpage.

insightdialogue
The Practice of Insight Dialogue
at Triangle Insight 
Insight Dialogue is an interpersonal meditation practice and is offered at Triangle Insight once monthly, usually on the fourth Wednesday of the month. It brings the mindfulness and tranquility of silent meditation directly into our experience with other people. The new website for Insight Dialogue is an excellent resource for learning more about the practice: www.metta.org

The evening begins with silent meditation practice, followed by gentle mindful movement, and then shifting into dyad practice where interpersonal mindfulness is explored with a partner in response to a contemplation that is offered. The dyad practice is optional so that anyone who chooses to remain in silent practice may do so, rather than shifting into dyad practice. One can investigate the guidance of the contemplation internally, noticing the moment by moment unfolding of internal experience. Also note that the ID practice goes from 6:30 to 8:30 PM to allow for more spaciousness and time for questions. We hope you will be able to join us.

Men's Sharing Group 
Now using Zoom platform
New Start Time: 6:30-8:00PM
This group is open to ALL MEN regardless of their tradition or path, or affiliation with the Triangle Insight Meditation Community. Our intention is to hear each other's interests, c oncerns, and ideas about forming and sustaining a group , all while getting to know each other. There will be a short period of meditating. A couple of us will help moderate the discussion initially but going forward, the leadership could be something collaborative, shared by all participants. It's a work in progress.
 
At its core, the group should be a space where men can share from their hearts about their experiences being men, following a meditative path -- and offering support to one another along the way.   
 
Some dana to defray expenses is welcome, but, of course, optional. Let us know if you think you'll attend.
