GREAT RIVER SANGHA is a satellite of the Tendai Buddhist Institute,
based in Canaan, New York.  Tendai is a tradition of Mahayana Buddhism
that includes a diverse array of practices to suit different kinds of
needs and abilities.  The film SHUGENDO NOW by Jean-Marc Abela and
Mark Patrick McGuire gives some insight into one aspect of this
tradition:  rigorous, active, outdoor meditations done in
near-solitude.  Other Tendai practices include seated meditation,
chanting, study of the sutras, and esoteric practices (mikkyo)
analogous to Tibetan Vajrayana.  Great River Sangha meets weekly for
meditation and inquiry into the teachings.  See dctendai.blogspot.com
or contact JikanAnderson@gmail.com for more information.

Everyone is welcome at Buddhist Movie Night, a free event.  We hope to
see you there!
