The following talk was given at the Insight Meditation Center in Redwood City, California.

Now, I have one announcement as well. Is this volume okay? It's a little bit loud for me,

but if it's okay with you, I'll manage.

So next, in two weeks, on the 24th of August, we'll have a community meeting here, and it's

kind of a nice time to get together after the usual Sunday morning, and we'll meet in the outer

hall maybe around like 1115 or something like that and and the idea is that

to talk a little bit about IMC the growth of IMC the challenges of IMC the growth of IMC, the challenges of IMC, the opportunities of IMC.

Just kind of check in with folks.

So I'll talk a little bit, I'll be there.

So it's in two weeks.

Next week I won't be here.

I'll be up teaching a retreat in the Cierras, which is kind of nice.

And one of the reasons why we do it that day is that it works us to have community meetings

when there's five Sundays in the month. Because the other four Sundays, we always have something.

Like today we have the potluck, the tea.

And so it doesn't happen that often that we have five Sundays,

but when we do the fourth one, we kind of slip in.

That's this kind of thing.

So... kind of thing. So it's a share something that's been in my mind

that has all kinds of wonderful implications

in all kinds of areas of our life.
