Renewing Our Commitment Through Sojong

On Monday night, while Tim is away, we’ll hold a Sojong ceremony followed by a small-group discussion.


Through the practice of Sojong, or “renewal,” we shed light on the patterns and habits that get in the way of realizing our aspirations and renew our commitment to the path of awakening. This beautiful practice reminds us of what matters most in our lives and reconnects us with it.



Please join us for the practice, followed by discussion.

Reflection of the Week

"We already have everything we need. There is no need for self-improvement. All these trips that we lay on ourselves—the heavy-duty fearing that we’re bad and hoping that we’re good, the identities that we so dearly cling to, the rage, the jealousy, and the addictions of all kinds—never touch our basic wealth. They are like clouds that temporarily block the sun. But all the time our warmth and brilliance are right here. This is who we really are. We are one blink of an eye away from being fully awake."


— Pema Chödrön
