Science & Buddhism
McMindfulness

On November 24 our monthly Science & Buddhism Discussion will be on the secularization and commercial popularization of mindfulness meditation practice, what sometimes gets dismissively called McMindfulness.

Several books will be referenced, including “McMindfulness - How Mindfulness Became the New Capitalist Spirituality,” by Ronald E. Purser; “What’s Wrong with Mindfulness (And What Isn’t): Zen Perspectives,” edited by Robert Meiko Rosenbaum and Barry Magid; and “The Mindful Way Through Depression,” by Williams, Teasdale, Segal, and Kabat-Zinn. Nico Detourn will lead our discussion.

______________________________

As always, our “Last Sundays” Science & Buddhism discussions are quite open and informal with all invited to participate.

All are welcome. No prior experience with science, Buddhism, or meditation is necessary. Hope to see you there!

Sunday Program: We also invite you to join us that Sunday morning for our 10 am Sunday Program, Dharma Talk, and social lunch, ahead of our 2 pm Science & Buddhism session.
