5/25/2026
(Spirit Rock Meditation Center) In this talk, after some personal stories from Donald about his father, who was a veteran, and about Donald’s early experiences growing up at the time of the Vietnam war, we explore several dimensions of our practice related to the holiday.

Oren Jay Sofer: Metta as a Way of Life: Refuge and Response in a Fractured World
5/20/2026
(Online) Drawing on the Mettā Sutta, this talk from Clear Dharma Sangha explores mettā as a way of life, a profound wish for the safety and happiness of all beings, and a way of seeing. Through the practice of the neutral person, we begin to extend goodwill beyond preference — and to cultivate a refuge that steadies us not to escape, but to turn toward the world with clarity, courage, and care.
