GRIP - Guiding Rage Into Power

with Tommy Shakur Ross, Nina Gold, Robin Guillen and Lindsey Villarreal

Please join us for a special in-person sangha meeting on Sunday, December 8 from 6:00-7:30pm PT. It will be an inspirational evening of meditation and conversation with Guiding Rage Into Power.

The introduction to the GRIP-Training Institute will be led by Tommy Shakur Ross, Nina Gold, Robin Guillen and Lindsey Villarreal.

GRIP, Guiding Rage Into Power, is a year-long program of personal transformation, healing and accountability offered in the California State prisons. It is rooted in restorative justice principals, with the understanding that “hurt people, hurt people and healed people, heal people."

This program began as a basic insight meditation program at San Quentin Prison some 25 years ago. Through real time experience and evidence-based methodology, under the guidance of Jacques Verduin, the program evolved into a deep and comprehensive journey where the participants are able to understand their past traumas and transform their violent behavior. The program is guided by the principles of Stopping Violent Actions, Cultivating Mindfulness, Developing Emotional Intelligence and Understanding Victim Impact.

For bios and more information about Guiding Rage Into Power, please visit GRIP’s website.

The event will be held at the San Francisco Buddhist Center in the Mission District at 37 Barlett Avenue, San Francisco, CA 94119

Please spread the word so that all those who would like to meet in person will have that option.

For those unable to attend in-person, you can listen and watch using our usual Sunday evening Zoom link. Please note that there will not be any questions taken or interaction on Zoom during this sit.
