As part of the North Main Yoga studio's third-year anniversary next month, they will be hosting a meditation class on a subject that reflects the gratefulness of the owners and teachers for being in the community. Thanks to Craig for this announcement:
dana practice: the practice of giving
During this class, we will listen to a teaching on the cultivation of a personal giving practice, followed by a meditation on the practice of giving.
Dana (generosity) is one of the Six Paramitas (perfections) of Buddhist practice. Through the practice of wisely offering others our time, kind words, material goods, etc., we can generate vast amounts of merit, increase our inner peace, eliminate our delusions and help our entire community in both temporary and lasting ways. We will discuss the benefits of giving, as well as how to give in the most appropriate and beneficial ways.
details
*to be held at North Main Yoga [Corner of North Main and Stone Ave, Downtown Greenville]
*Sunday, August 17th, from 3:30-5
*suggested donation: $7 [Proceeds from this class will help support the Ganden Center’s various educational programs.]

[note from kelly: although this meditation technique will be taught from a Buddhist perspective, the ideas are useful for all practitioners, no matter what religion they ascribe to or don't.]
