Self-Love, Metta and the Myth of Selfishness | March 3, 2023

A meditative exploration in self-love would not be complete without engaging the historic buddhist practice called Metta. In this gathering, Davin debunks the idea of "selfishness" and leads a rich loving-kindness meditation that focuses attention on wishing oneself well. He uses the words of Sharon Salzberg as aid in contemplation.

Meditation practices can tend to steer away from the idea of aspiring or dreaming, but at the heart of being present to this moment, right here, right now is the truth of infinite possibility. In fact, the Buddha aspired to end suffering and so why should we not follow his lead and imagine the same for ourselves? In fact, what if dreaming and aspiring, different than longing and clinging, were incredible acts of self-love? In this gathering, Davin explores this theme precisely, offering his own unique take on meditation and manifestation.

Born out of the pandemic, Sit Club began in September of 2020 and continues every Sunday morning at 10am CT. Typically an hour in length, an intimate group of all ages, genders and races, from all over the world gathers on Zoom to sit in guided meditation, contemplate a reading and then share in conversation. Each gathering is centered around a spiritual theme chosen and guided by Davin. Youngs Buddhism is often the framework through which the readings and practices are approached, but no particular religious or philosophical ideology is subscribed to.

There are no requirements, special skills or abilities that are necessary to attend. Just an open heart and a desire to connect with a community of seekers.
