Love Without Discrimination

"The fourth element of true love is upeksha, which means equanimity, non-attachment, nondiscrimination, even-mindedness, or letting go. Upa means ‘over,’ and iksha means ‘to look.’ You climb the mountain to be able to look over the whole situation, not bound by one side or the other. If your love has attachment, discrimination, prejudice, or clinging in it, it is not true love. People who do not understand Buddhism sometimes think upeksha means indifference, but true equanimity is neither cold nor indifferent. If you have more than one child, they are all your children. Upeksha does not mean that you don’t love. You love in a way that all your children receive your love, without discrimination."

--Thich Nhat Hanh, How to Love

Our Sangha Care Team includes our Bell Minders, the mindful facilitators for our weekly gatherings who take beautiful care of our friends in practice including the bell. Together, we meet for sangha care meetings to plan retreats, mind our library and resources, and coordinate outreach.
