Munich Center and surrounding meditation groups meeting
March 1st, 2012One evening of the February book retreat, Lama Ole and Caty met the teams working for and contributing to the Munich Buddhist Center as well as the smaller meditation groups situated close to Munich: Dachau, Munich South-East and Murnau.
It was Caty’s idea to get together in the Diamond Room in order to see the smart and often also new faces of the people who are right now active in the sangha. Plenty of teams with fresh and motivated members reported about their main activities and tasks, e.g. the centers’ program, the Dharma shop, library, translation, cleaning and maintenance of the house or finances and many other voluntary activities.
Everyone got a chance to ask questions related to their work in the teams. Furthermore, Lama Ole and Caty got to know the people guiding the meditation and giving introductory talks, supported by the 13 traveling teachers asked by Lama Ole to teach Buddhism who live in Munich. This also illustrates the beneficial and well-functioning mixture of experienced Buddhists and new sangha members which can be found in all the teams.
Finally and with great joy, the Munich Sangha presented to Lama Ole a check for moreEC from the financial surplus of the center’s activities before Lama Ole gave blessing to everyone present to round of a very inspiring evening.
