Beginning Saturday, December 13, SMG will explore Bringing Home the Dharma: Awakening Right Where You Are by Jack Kornfield.

About the book:
In Bringing Home the Dharma, Jack Kornfield offers timeless wisdom for finding peace and awakening compassion in everyday life. Drawing on over forty years of Buddhist practice, he explores themes like loving‑kindness, forgiveness, conscious parenting, and healing the world’s suffering, with simple meditation practices for awakening our buddha nature—our wise and understanding heart—amid the ups and downs of our ordinary daily lives.

We are excited to begin this new book study together — a fresh season of practice, conversation, and community, welcoming both familiar and new friends. Please have your own copy ready so you can follow along.

If you’d like to participate, email us at vsmg.mgr@gmail.com for weekly reminders and the Zoom link. We meet virtually on Saturday mornings at 9AM for a 30-minute gentle guided Vipassana meditation, followed by an hour of book reading and discussion from 9:30-10:30AM.
