This session is led by two charismatic American nuns (one a former Atlanta resident) coming to us from Sravasti Abbey, a Buddhist monastery in the Tibetan tradition in the Pacific Northwest. Venerables Thubten Chonyi and Thubten Dekyi will lead guided meditation and Dharma talk on cultivating love and compassion in our busy lives. Everyone is welcome to practice mindfulness and feel the joy in our hearts. ### Compassion in Action: An evening with the nuns from Sravasti Abbey Monastery We all want to live in a kinder, more compassionate world. But how do we actually cultivate compassion—and put it into action in the midst of everyday life?

Dekyi will share ways to develop the qualities that help us meet difficult times with greater kindness, joy, resilience, and an open heart.
