SILENT NIGHT
Are you comfortable with silence?
Can you observe the thoughts, feelings, images and impressions that are coming through?
Can you observe the chattering of the mind and the urges to express what is there?
This is a silent event. It is an event of feeling. It is an event of the interaction and exploration of communication with others through raw energies rather than words.
Event Details:
IMPORTANT NOTE: We recommend arriving at 4:15pm as the gates will close at 4:30pm. Please show up ON TIME by 4:30pm so we don’t have interruptions to our connection and our process.
REGISTRATION - Please register for the event to have a smooth check-in. Exact address will be provided after registration.
CONTRIBUTION-BASED EVENT - We are a community and it takes a community to make these events happen. Cost per person - Donation. We believe that everyone should have access to these teachings and will never charge a set admission for these dharma talks. That said, we do incur costs so please consider helping $$ so we can continue to offer these events. We always welcome contributions of plants, soil, containers and other gardening supplies for the community garden and of course monetary donations are extremely appreciated. Will you consider donating? All monetary contributions are 100% put toward this community space! Any contributions can be paid through the registration app, in person at the event or through Venmo - @Water-Shepherd
PARTICIPATION: Any volunteers to help set up and clean up are appreciated! Additionally, if you would like to be part of the "garden team" to keep the grounds looking beautiful on a regular basis, please contact Water.
ENVIRONMENT: This is an outdoor space! The ground is uneven and there are wood chips/mulch. Wear good shoes. Dress for the weather. We will have cushions to sit around the fire in the Portal of Consciousness (a concrete conversation pit dug into the earth). The first step is deep and there are no handrails. If you need help going up and down, please ask. If you have an unsteady gait, or have any other difficulty, please sit on the benches on the outside of the pit instead and do not attempt to go into the pit by yourself. We have a fire pit for the winter and in the hot summer months, there is an option to jump in the pool if you would like to do that. Please bring a swimsuit and a towel. Please refrain from wearing oil-base sunscreen or other products prior to using the pool. We also do our best to mitigate mosquitos, but DIY natural based spray is available if needed. The pool and pond are unfenced. This may not be a good event to bring young children too as we will be sitting and talking for 2 hours. Please leave your animals at home. This is a smoke free, meat free, and sober space.
GATHERING SPACE: We believe everyone should have access to a safe community where we can come together in a very conscious way to create the world we want. We host events at the Empowere House Community Gathering Space where all people are accepted and loved. We believe when people feel safe and supporthing, they will naturally practice kindness, feel better, increase their motivation and focus and have a reduction in anxiety, stress and depression.
