I hope, like these grasses, you have also found the fullness of life this summer.<\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div class=\"yiv9198824239e2ma-p-div\">It is an honor to be joining you at Tufts University, where our meditation practices can complement your classroom education, opening the mind to deep integrative insight, and a path of compassion.<\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div class=\"yiv9198824239e2ma-p-div\">The first sitting of the academic year will be\u00a0Monday, September 13 from 12 p.m. &#8211; 1 p.m. Mondays\u00a0will serve as an introduction to meditation, and beginners are most welcome.<\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div class=\"yiv9198824239e2ma-p-div\">Every Wednesday beginning September 15, we will offer a meditation session with Buddhist studies from 7 p.m. &#8211; 8 p.m. All sessions will meet in the Interfaith Center, 58 Winthrop Street across from Breed Memorial Hall. We will be adding an online midday mindfulness session later as well.<\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div class=\"yiv9198824239e2ma-p-div\">Buddhist college chaplaincy is my path with heart. I have trained in both traditional Buddhist temples in Korea and have focused my doctoral research on the deep wellspring of Buddhist ritual and tradition. I look forward to lifting up the richly diverse cultures of Buddhism through practice and study on our Wednesday evening sessions. And I am delighted to provide an entry-way for beginnings that supports relaxation and focus every Monday, too.<\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div class=\"yiv9198824239e2ma-p-div\">In addition, my training in mindfulness, psychology, and clinical pastoral education (CPE) provides additional creative toolsets to help people connect with their inner resources in the here-and-now, whatever their spiritual path. Please reach out with any questions that you may have.<\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div class=\"yiv9198824239e2ma-p-div\">I would love to sit down together and share a cup of tea.<\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div class=\"yiv9198824239e2ma-p-div\">With best wishes and metta,<\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div>Ji Hyang Padma, Ph.D.<\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div class=\"yiv9198824239e2ma-p-div\"><\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div class=\"yiv9198824239e2ma-p-div\"><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Dear Sangha, Welcome back to our lovely campus, which is deeply green &#8212; its grasses and trees replenished by life-giving rains.
