Virtual Sustainable Compassion Training Group

Every Wednesday 10-11:30am EST on zoom

Ken Lenington (a retired psychiatrist) has practiced in the Buddhist tradition for many years, particularly drawn to the Lojong Trainings in the Dzochen tradition, and to Shantideva’s The Way of the Bodhisattva. Five years ago he began practicing with the meditations in Sustainable Compassion Training (SCT) as given in Lama John Makransky’s Awakening Through Love, and found them transformative. Two years ago the group he has been leading for the past 10 years switched its focus to SCT, with Lama John’s guidance. This new online group will use How Compassion Works by John Makransky and Paul Condon as the primary source material, studying this text thoroughly, without haste, and exploring the meditations that are foundational to this practice. Ken will be joined by Celeste McKeever, a trauma-informed therapist specializing in Attachment Theory and Internal Family Systems. She is a long-time Buddhist practitioner, and has practiced SCT with Ken for the past two years.
