On Sunday, March 17, our friends over at New York Insight Meditation Center will be hosting a benefit in honor of their 15th anniversary. Senior teacher and Tricycle contributor Sylvia Boorstein will be teaching the Metta Sutta, the Buddha’s sermon in impartial kindness, as the complete guide to practice. The afternoon will include study, meditation, and a Q&A—all suitable for beginners.

The event will take place at New York Insight on Sunday, March 17, from 1:30 to 4:30pm. The cost is $50.

Find more details on their website here.

(If you don’t live in New York or can’t make it to the event, you can watch Boorstein’s Tricycle retreat, “The Whole of Life As Practice,” on the same subject.)
