ZEENAT POTIA AND CIMC ON WBZ NEWS

Honoring the roots of Buddhism for AAPI Heritage Month, CIMC teacher Zeenat Potia discusses meditation & the Dharma on WBZ News. Watch the segment here.

KAZU HAGA: ACCOUNTABILITY AS COMPASSIONATE ACTION

Last month at the Buddhism and Race Conference, Kazu Haga explored how the Dharma can support us in understanding accountability as an act of compassion. Watch the talk here.

MASK POLICY CHANGE

Since May 11, wearing a mask has become optional at the Center. This change coincides with the ending of the COVID-19 Public Health Emergency in Massachusetts and nationally. As always, we ask anyone who is ill or has been exposed to COVID, flu, etc. to refrain from coming to the Center. Thank you for your care and consideration.

A Welcoming Community

The Cambridge Insight Meditation Center is dedicated to creating a space that welcomes all people regardless of cultural and religious background, race, socio-economic class, sexual orientation, gender identity, age, education, and physical ability. Financial support for our programs is available to all.

As Guiding Teachers, we are committed to offering the essence of the Buddha's message of liberation and it is our intention to apply these teachings to every aspect of daily life. We recognize that for many people, everyday life means being subject to social injustice on a regular basis. As a community and institution, we are committed to the freedom—both inner and outer—of all beings. Hopefully, CIMC and the Buddha's teachings can contribute in a small way to the necessary changes that will facilitate social justice.

May we all cultivate wisdom and compassion and recognize the interdependence of all beings everywhere.
