Contemplating awakenings and renewals

A meditation on end-of-life and what comes next…

Paragon Arts Gallery PCC Cascade Campus
815 N. Killingsworth Street, Portland OR, 97217

Join us for an afternoon of guided meditation focused on cultivating mindfulness and awareness of our mortality. We will draw inspiration from Maranasati, or The Nine Contemplations of Death, a Buddhist meditation practice designed to help us confront and overcome our resistance to death and dying.

The primary purpose of these practices is to face our own mortality, similar to traditional meditation, intended to enhance our appreciation for the richness of everyday life.

Dardinelle Troen, an artist and end-of-life doula, will guide participants through a 45-minute seated meditation that explores the nine contemplations, incorporating visualizations that reflect on our role as future ancestors.
