Dedicated ILC Student Bob Chasan in Sierra Vista is organizing this event.

In Sierra Vista we will be at Veterans Memorial Park. I do not have an
exact location yet but will keep updating this page as things become
clearer.

Please see http://thundermountaintaichi.com for updates.

Our guest speaker and demonstrator is Kelley Graham from Tucson Arizona. His website is www.ucbprogram.com There has been a lot of good response so far. There are several people from Bisbee who also plan on attending.

I look forward to seeing you then.

Kalama Sutta (Kalama Sutra)

Do not simply believe what you hear just because you have heard it for a long time.
Do no follow tradition blindly merely because it has been practiced that way for many generations.
Do not be quick to listen to rumors.
Do not confirm anything just because it agrees with your scriptures.
Do not foolishly make assumptions.
Do not abruptly draw conclusions by what you see and hear.
Do not be fooled by outward appearances.
Do not hold on tightly to any view or idea just because you are comfortable with it.
Do not accept as fact anything that you yourself find to be illogical.
Do not be convinced of anything out of respect and deference to your spiritual teachers.

You should go beyond opinion and belief. You can rightly reject anything which when accepted, practiced and perfected leads to more aversion, more craving and more delusion. They are not beneficial and are to be avoided. Conversely, you can rightly accept anything which when accepted and practiced leads to unconditional love, contentment and wisdom. These things allow you time and space to develop a happy and peaceful mind. This should be your criteria on what is and what is not the truth; on what should be and what should not be the spiritual practice.

-The Buddha
