CV Field Trip: Ajahn Kovilo & Ajahn Nisabho at IMC
🪷 Come join us for a meditation & dharma talk @ Insight Meditation Center with Ajahn Kovilo & Ajahn Nisabho ☸️
Ajahn Kovilo & Ajahn Nisabho are Buddhist monks in the Thai Forest lineage of Ajahn Chah, and co-founders of Clear Mountain Monastery. Both are in their 30's & 40's and have been practicing as monks for 15-20 years. We have been inspired by the way they offer the dharma & build sangha in innovative, modern ways, with a very community-centric approach. They'll be visiting the Bay Area for a few days, and this is a beautiful opportunity to sit with them. We hope you can join us :)
🧘♂️ This is a group field trip coordinated by Community Village, to a freely offered event at Insight Meditation Center (IMC) in Redwood City. No registration is required. You can learn more about IMC here.
🚙 Carpooling is a great opportunity to connect with others in the community & share experiences :) Join our WhatsApp group to coordinate carpools & connect with other folks attending!
❤️ You can learn more about Ajahn Kovilo, Ajahn Nisabho, and Clear Mountain Monastery here. We recommend checking out the interviews they do on their podcast with people from Jack Kornfield to Yuval Noah Harari, Roshi Joan Halifax, and lots of inspiring monastics. It's awesome!
All are welcome. We look forward to sharing the day with you! 😊

What's Insight Meditation Center?
The Insight Meditation Center (IMC) is dedicated to the study and practice of Buddhist ideals – mindfulness, ethics, compassion, loving-kindness, and liberation. At the heart of all IMC activities is the practice of Insight Meditation, sometimes called mindfulness or Vipassana meditation. Based on a 2500-year-old Buddhist teaching, this practice helps us to see more deeply and clearly into our lives. With insight, we develop ways of living more peacefully, compassionately, and wisely.
