About this event
Returning Teacher: Vance Pryor - The Practice of Compassion
Dukkha — the stress, dissatisfaction, and difficulty woven throughout life — is an aspect of our lives that the Buddha said we are tasked with understanding. Compassion is the practice of not pulling away from it. Rather than trying to fix suffering, we learn to stay close, to let the heart be present with what's difficult. This talk explores what makes that closeness possible and what it opens up in our practice.
Vance Pryor, PsyD, began practicing insight meditation in 1998. He has been deeply influenced by the teachings of Sayadaw U Pandita and Sayadaw U Tejaniya. His training to become a teacher has been supported by the mentorship of Steve Armstrong and Kamala Masters. He is a graduate of IMS’s 2017-2021 Teacher Training Program.
Vance Pryor will be teaching the Sunday program at the White Heron Sangha once per quarter for the next few quarters.
