"Equally Empty" and the Gates of Heaven, the Gates of Hell

Posted on: Sat, 06/06/2020 - 21:41 By: Tom Swiss

This present moment in the summer of 2020, with the unrest and the police violence in the wake of the murder of George Floyd by police in the middle of the COVID-19 pandemic crisis, requires that we stop to consider issues around peace, violence, love, and self and community defense. These are my thoughts, excerpted from the May 31 2020 session of the "Sunday Afternoon Sitting" meditation series I have been running during the pandemic.
