IMS/Spirit Rock Founders’ Evening Series
Seattle Insight is pleased to announce a three part IMS/Spirit Rock Founders’ Evening Series. Jack Kornfield, Sharon Salzberg and Joseph Goldstein are offering events as a benefit for our sangha. All proceeds will go to supporting our ongoing programming.
This is a special opportunity for the Seattle Insight Sangha to hear from these three very senior teachers who established the Insight Meditation Society Retreat Center nearly fifty years ago. They have had a profound influence on the Insight Meditation tradition both nationally and globally.
Please attend and support Seattle Insight with your generosity and bring your questions.
