The essence of spiritual practice is awakening to our original wisdom, beyond the confining delusions of our cultural conditioning. The foundation of this awakening is practicing mindfulness and compassion. Join Dr. Will Tuttle, a former Zen monk and meditation practitioner for 40 years, in a provocative and insightful exploration into the connections between spiritual practice and our daily lives here in the West.
The World Peace Diet, a #1 Amazon best-seller, has been called one of the most important books of the 21st century: the foundation of a new society based on the truth of the interconnectedness of all life. It is the first book to make explicit the invisible connections between our meals and our broad range of problems—psychological, social, and spiritual, as well as health and environmental. It offers powerful ways we can all experience healing and contribute to a positive transformation of human consciousness. Dr. Tuttle is a charismatic presenter with a profoundly compassionate vision. Please don't miss this opportunity to hear him.

- “The World Peace Diet is one of the most provocative books I’ve ever read.
This is a insights that penetrate and expose the complacency of a culture
that has strayed painfully far from compassion.”

confronting us all, but also to powerful ways we each can affect it. This
book is radiant with his learning and his compassion.”

Hi All,
Attached is the flyer for the Will Tuttle event on August 12. Please feel free to share with friends and contacts, and to print and post in your community. Color printing would be preferable, and keep track of any costs you incur for printing; we should be able to reimburse you if we get a good turnout! We'll be printing some flyers for distribution too, but it would be great to start getting the word out on this asap!
We also need to try and round up some food donations for the event, so if you have a favorite place that you'd like to approach let me know (just so two or three of us don't all hit up the same place!). We'll put out cards, menus or other PR for places that donate. Light refreshments that are easily served up would be nice, a cookie platter, cut fruit, veggies and hummus etc.
Also, Philip Murphy has arranged for us to have access to the Insight Pioneer Valley sangha space for our own Dharma gatherings on the fourth Thursday of every month, beginning this month on 7/28 at 6PM! Thank you Philip, this will be nice!
And lastly, please go to the DVA website and open a free membership if you haven't already, make a donation if you are able, and join our Facebook group if you're on FB!
Thanks everyone, and have a great day!
Ed
