SUMMARY:Online: A Verified Kind of Faith – Buddhism & Addiction Recovery with Walt Opie
DESCRIPTION:Online: A Verified Kind of Faith – Buddhism & Addiction Recovery\nwith Walt Opie \nThursday\, June 5\, 2025 | 6:30pm – 8:30pm ET (via Zoom) \nFor many of us in recovery from addiction\, the word “faith” can conjure up memories of being forced to participate in organized religion or it can feel related to a so-called “higher power.” \nWhen Buddhist teachings refer to faith\, it’s different. The Buddha himself discouraged people from acting out of blind faith. Instead\, Buddhism describes three ways that faith\, or confidence\, can manifest or build over time\, including: bright faith\, verified faith\, and unshakeable faith. \nAccording to the well-known teacher Gil Fronsdal\, faith in Buddhism is not a belief system but a faculty or a capacity we have that we can develop further. In fact\, faith\, just like recovery\, can be a kind of empowerment. With support from the teachings and others on similar journeys\, we learn how to trust our inner wisdom. We gain a new kind of inner confidence. \nDuring this program\, we will explore the three different types of faith\, as well as how faith in the Buddhist teachings and practices can help keep us on the path of recovery. There will be guided meditation\, a dharma talk\, and time for sharing and discussion. \nPlease join us for this special evening of learning to strengthen our inner resources through the Buddhist teachings.
