Hello all -
Based on a model of 'exploring dharma in prison' that Awake in Action organized last year, the Interspiritual Centre contacted us to use the same format and organize a similar event, but expanding the evening to a larger, ecumenical audience base.
If you missed the event that took place at the Vancouver Shambhala Centre Oct. 2007, please come out and support this important film with a very important theme; for those incarcerate, doing time in institutions based largely on violence and aggression, a meditation practice can be the seed of transformation.
If you have questions, please contact me -

Hey everyone - for those of you who have seen this already, bring a friend who hasn't! See you there - Jennifer
Doing Time, Doing Vipassana Thursday Feb 21st 7 ? 9 pm Rhizome Caf? 317 East Broadway Entrance by Donation. Great prizes to win. First 50 people through the door will get a 2008 calendar - prizes include a $25 gift certificate at HT Naturals and $10 one at Magpie Books. Come join us to watch the award winning documentary about meditation in a South Asian prison as a method of rehabilitation for the inmates. An introduction will be presented by guest speaker Alison Granger Brown, former prisoner liaison at Alouette Women?s Correctional Facility in Maple Ridge describing prison life there. Open discussion to follow. Please come early and enjoy some great food. Money raised goes towards putting together similar events like this.
