01-08-25 Sangha Meeting Invitation
The Importance of Ritual
****
Happy New Year to All!
In our first gathering of 2025 we invite you to join us as we take up the conversation and inquiry into what rituals are in our lives and how our lives gain value by acknowledgement and practice of rituals.
A ritual, generically speaking, is a series of actions performed according to a prescribed order, and which is often embedded in a larger symbolic system, such as religion or philosophy. But in actuality, rituals are everywhere. For example, the very specific way one makes tea or coffee in the morning is a daily ritual.
What part does ritual play in your life and what do you feel, in body and mind, when performing a ritual? How do we define ritual at an individual level and in a social context? These are just a few of the questions we encourage you to consider. We’re excited to learn what perspectives you’ll bring to the conversation when we meet.

The Sangha is a community examining how to live our best expression of wisdom and Elderhood. To be this expression, we must shift our way of thinking so that we transmute information and insights into wisdom. In this Sangha we offer experiences and discussions that inform the process of becoming Elder. We draw from the rich traditions of Eastern and Western practices, philosophies and psychologies.Please be sure to watch these very insightful short videos below by ‘clicking’ on the italicized titles.
