Ongoing events
Mondays, 10:00am–11:30am on Zoom
Meditation & Discussion led by Pamela Patton
Please join us!
Join us for a talk and a meditation followed by a discussion (you can choose whether you’d like to go to a breakout room or stay in the main room for a larger group conversation). The topics are different each week — some examples include destructive emotions and the Buddhist understanding of impermanence.
We have variety of guest teachers. They are announced on our mailing list.
Alternating Tuesdays, 1:00pm–2:30pm on Zoom
Dharma Study Group led by Harry Miller
Please join us!
This is a drop-in group — all are welcome to attend once or as many times as you like. We explore basic teachings of Buddhism using both a philosophical and, more importantly, a practical, approach. We study important Mahayana texts like the Heart Sutra and the Diamond Sutra. We perform a close reading of the texts, paragraph by paragraph and line by line when necessary. It is a very interactive class — what is most important is that everyone be comfortable with the material and make progress in their own way.
2nd and 4th Wednesdays, 1:00pm–2:30pm on Zoom
Enlightened Aging Book Club with Marianne
Please join us!
The Enlightened Aging Book Club is currently reading Alive Until You're Dead by Susan Moon. This group is for people 60+ who appreciate the opportunity to connect with others who are of a certain age and therefore of a certain degree of wisdom. Our conversations are about much more than aging. Drop-ins are always welcome.
Thursdays, 10:00am–11:30am on Zoom
Transforming Our Suffering led by Pamela Patton
Please join us!
Please join us for a discussion of Start Where You Are by Pema Chodron. You are most welcome to attend whether or not you’ve done the reading. We start with a short meditation; Pamela summarizes the chapter and shows a video to support the reading; Harry Miller reflects on the teachings, and then we have a discussion (you can choose whether you’d like to go to a breakout room or stay in the main room for a larger group conversation). Each session is standalone, so you can drop in whenever you wish.
About the book:
"Pema offers down-to-earth guidance on how we can go beyond the fleeting attempts to 'fix' our pain and, instead, to take our lives as they are as the only path to achieve what we all yearn for most deeply—to embrace rather than deny the difficulties of our lives. These teachings, framed around fifty-nine traditional Tibetan Buddhist maxims, point us directly to our own hearts and minds, such as 'Be grateful to everyone,' and 'Don’t expect applause.' By working with these slogans as everyday meditations, Start Where You Are shows how we can all develop the courage to work with our own inner pain and discover true joy, holistic well-being, and unshakeable confidence."
About the author:Pema Chodron (“lotus dharma lamp”) was born Deirdre Blomfield-Brown in 1936, in New York City. She is an American Tibetan Buddhist. She is an ordained nun, former acharya of Shambhala Buddhism and disciple of Chögyam Trungpa Rinpoche. Chödrön has written several dozen books and audiobooks, and is principal teacher at Gampo Abbey in Nova Scotia.
Other books we’ve read include: When Things Fall Apart by Pema Chödrön, A Fearless Heart by Thupten Jinpa, Happiness by Matthieu Ricard, A Fierce Heart by Spring Washam, and The Misleading Mind by Karuna Cayton.

Series
Mindfulness Meditation with Mary Jo Meadow on Zoom
Mondays 6-7:30pm May 1, 8, 22, and June 5, 12
Join Mary Jo Meadow for a five class series on mindfulness meditation. The Theravada is the oldest existing school of Buddhism. Its mindfulness meditation, like other Buddhist methods, leads to deep spiritual realization and to understanding of one's own being. One meditator said that it gives you your owner's manual for yourself. It is especially helpful for people who have trouble developing concentration (an obedient mind that pays attention to what it is told to attend) since its noting method provides "hooks" for attentiveness. Programs dealing with pain, stress, addictions and other unwanted impulses, problem emotions, and problem thinking have been developed from this method. Since the teaching is cumulative, attendance at all five sessions is encouraged.
Mary Jo Meadow is professor emerita of psychology and religious studies from Minnesota State University at Mankato. She has been teaching mindfulness in the United States, Canada, Europe, and Australia since 1987. She reared eight children. She has 17 grandchildren and six great-grandchildren. She now lives in Minnesota with two beloved cats. With thanks to Mary Jo who has kindly offered this class to our community as a gift.

Invitation to Meditation, a four-part class with Emma
Many people feel confident they’ll benefit from meditation, but they feel stuck about how to start, re-start or sustain a practice. Through engaging in meditation practice in community, supporting one another in contemplative exploration, and guidance from Buddhist teachings, we aim to deepen our personal meditation practices. If you are curious about meditation or you’d like some support in your practice, please join us. Attendance at all four sessions is strongly encouraged. Weekly themes will build on each other and individual explorations will benefit from the consistency of regular attendance.
Emma Markham is currently a Master of Divinity in Buddhism and Interreligious Engagement candidate at Union Theological Seminary where she also serves as co-chair of the Buddhist Student Collective. She has been practicing Tibetan Buddhism, specifically the lam rim, since 2013 and has held a daily meditation practice since she was a teenager. She is enrolled in the FPMT’s Basic Program Online and has led meditation groups at the Church Center for the UN, NY State Mentoring, and other organizations since 2019. Emma is a classical guitarist and worked in nonprofit operations before returning to school to pursue Buddhist chaplaincy.
Grief Becomes Us: Navigating Loss & Sorrow Through Storytelling with Ellen Abrams
A 5-week writing group that honors the different kinds of losses we carry
Please note that a sliding scale offering is requested for this class, and it will be shared between the teacher and All Souls.*
One of the ways that can help us navigate the unpredictable turns of loss is creative expression—using writing as a healing practice that names, honors and recognizes grief while also tethering us to our inner resourcefulness and wisdom. Grief Becomes Us offers a gathering place for those wanting to experiment with writing as a practice to traverse losses of all kinds. No previous writing experience required. In this 5-week program, we’ll gather once-weekly to deepen our connection to the narratives of loss we carry. At each gathering we will open and close with a short meditation, we’ll write from a poetry prompt, share our work (optional) and have time to reflect on the experience and anything that’s come up through our writing. Caring for ourselves through grief and sorrow can be an intense, intimate, deep experience and when shared, perhaps we can welcome our whole-hearted selves a little more fully.
Bio: An Upstate New Yorker with a long stint in the Bay Area from 1992-2005, Ellen is a lover of the untamed and weedy. A gardener, writer, meditation teacher, and parent of two young adults. She is happiest with a strong cup of tea in hand, quietly puttering in the garden, walking in the woods, or bantering with family.
25+ years of clinical experience as a Marriage and Family Therapist in community mental health clinics, hospices, and in private practice, she first came to contemplative practices and compassionate care by way of the Zen Hospice Project in her early twenties. The teaching from that time and in the decades since of professional and personal inquiry continue to shape her—intimacy with death and grief teaches that compassion is a necessary companion to suffering and the dance with delight an outgrowth of an attentive heart. Her work is centered around the messy intersection of everyday life and spiritual practice, holding space for opening to the tender places within ourselves with as much kindness and curiosity we can muster.
Date with Death Club with Cherie Henderson and Pamela
Created by Karen G. Johnston, MSW, M.Div, DwDC explores mortality in community. DwDC is an opportunity to learn, share, and deepen your own understanding of what death means to you and how you want to approach death -- particularly your own. Informed by spiritual sensibilities, but no specific religious dogma, DwDC just may be for you. Designed as a multi-session learning experience, DwDC participants can attend one, many, or all of the offered sessions. DwDC is not a bereavement or grief support group. While it may be healing of the human condition, the nature of the DwDC is not specifically therapeutic.
Buddhism in a Nutshell with Richard Einhorn and Pamela
Are you curious about Buddhism? Would you like to find out more without any long-term commitment? If so, this five-session course is for you! Buddhism in a Nutshell is a great opportunity to get an overview of basic Buddhist philosophy and principles and learn how to integrate them into your life. Join us for a refreshing overview of Buddhist practice. In addition to readings and discussion, you will receive simple meditation instruction to bring this time-tested philosophy from the head to the heart. All are welcome!
It will be most beneficial if you can attend the whole series but you can also register for individual stand-alone sessions if you prefer.
This course is offered through our partner dharma center, Shantideva Center. Donations are requested, and they are shared by Shantideva Center and All Souls. That said, no one will be turned away due to lack of funds. Your motivation to do the course is what matters most. Learn more and register here: https://shantidevanyc.org/programs/study/bin/
Community Meditation with Emma
Weekly drop-in community meditation on Zoom. We sit together for the first half and hold space for sharing the second half. Suitable for all meditation levels, this space is designed for community practice and intentional, safe sharing. Come for an early evening respite, get to know fellow AllSouls meditators, and start or continue your meditation practice!
Mindfulness Based Stress Reduction with Ananta
MBSR helps participants relate differently to the stresses in their lives and offers the opportunity to cultivate resilience and emotional intelligence. It supports mental wellbeing and many faith-specific contemplative practices. This transformative course is suited for those coming to meditation for the first time or for experienced meditators / contemplatives who would like support in integrating these practices more fully into their lives.
Ananta is a certified MBSR teacher by the Mindfulness Center at Brown University, an ordained Buddhist and a Fellow of the Interfaith Center of New York. He has decades of meditation practice and study experience, as well as leading various cycles of the seminal MBSR curriculum to faith practitioners and the wider public.
Cognitively-Based Compassion Training with Ellen Mendlow and Marshall Kupka-Moore
CBCT® (Cognitively-Based Compassion Training). CBCT® is a system of contemplative exercises designed to strengthen and sustain compassion which was developed by Lobsang Tenzin Negi, PhD, Executive Director of the Center for Contemplative Science and Compassion-Based Ethics at Emory University.
During the program, we will practice attentional stability, self-compassion and emotional awareness, as well as exercises and reflections to better understand our relationship with self and others. Through engaging with these practices-–derived from Tibetan Buddhist traditions and grounded in extensive research– informed compassion can become a spontaneous response that permeates our lives.
CBCT® attendees receive weekly teachings, an in-depth CBCT® guide, and access to guided meditations via the CBCT® app. Classes are highly interactive and include background on research along with meditations. (For a taste of CBCT® check out Emory University’s Compassion Shift page.) CBCT® practices are secular and accessible to all–you do not need prior meditation or other background to participate and benefit.
CBCT® teachers:
Ellen Mendlow regularly attends our Buddhism & Mindfulness programs. She has practiced Buddhism for over a decade, recently with Sravasti Abbey and Shantideva Center. She is a meditation leader and certified yoga teacher and is thrilled to share her passion for combining contemplative practice and mind-body science with a broad audience.
Marshall Kupka-Moore has been meditating his entire adult life and has a passion for sharing peace and wellness with people wherever he goes. He is a 200-hour certified Vinyasa yoga teacher and has taken multiple trips to India, met the Dalai Lama, lived with and learned from monks, and advised Emory University students exploring the intersection of Buddhism and mind-body sciences. Currently, Marshall is the CEO of Source Wellness and co-founder of the Bed-Stuy Art Residency.
The Skillful Means and Perfections When We Need Them Most with Pilar
In Buddhist teachings, the Skillful Means (upaya) are a colorful invitation for teachers to reflect on how best to offer the healing methods and insights in the Buddhist tradition given the needs of a particular group. In this six-class series, we will explore what it means to practice the Buddhist ethics of loving-kindness and compassion during times of acute duress. We will consider the ways in which we might best practice this tradition in a world informed by social media, polarization, and the ripple effects of a pandemic. As a template for this conversation, we’ll reflect on the six Paramitas (perfections), those qualities thought to nurture a clear mind and open heart, as we think through how to develop these qualities as we navigate the continued challenges of our time.
Each session includes a dharma talk, a brief meditation, and time for questions.
No prior experience with Buddhism is necessary. All are welcome!
