What is organic?
How does BD want to participate, what does she need?
what’s the ethos/culture?
what’s the intention?
what’s the organizing principle?
SUPPORT IDEAS:
Write out what you’d be comfortable leading/holding space for, then be invited by invitation (by Barbara?) to lead something. Also, don't mind volunteering for tasks
Zen practice models, seniors/students for taking care of administrative and timekeeping business. co-facilitators lead - holding the space of wisdom (space suit) space-of-wisdom suit, break down little jobs from martial arts/zen retreat
EVOLUTION IDEAS
If incorporating/expanding to 24:
break out rooms in the afternoon and late morning model
How do we deepen/advance of dal?
people deepen practice perhaps with sitting, writing, etc? for the month before coming
silent lunch?
WHAT'S NECESSARY?
what’s the intention?
To:
continue this lineage
laboratory
retreat/renew
day three is the hard day: Barbara to lead the morning
Elements of a dal:
some things are always there
contemplative dance practice in mornings
solo quads & parallel corridors
afternoon - everybody brings in scores scores – laboratory
group conversation – on a relevant philosophical question
evening potluck at Barbara’s - celebration
what’s on Barbara’s mind (like "follow me" this year)
themes of investigation from Barbara like notecards
gift economy conversation
need to
participants keeping conversation going thru blog, response
