What Nourishes Us: Rev angel Kyodo williams' Half/Day Sit

9/23/2024

"We can't control everything but being prepared to meet whatever arises is how we come through with resolve to move forward no matter what."
​Rev. angel Kyodo williams, Roshi, is an author of two books, a maverick spiritual teacher, master trainer, and founder of Transformative Change. She has been bridging the worlds of personal transformation and justice for decades. Ordained as a Zen "sensei," she is the second black woman recognized as a teacher in her lineage. She is a social visionary that applies wisdom teachings and practice to social issues. Both fierce and grounded, she is known for her unflinching willingness to both sit with and speak uncomfortable truths with love.

Rev. angel offers a simple monthly 4-hour (half-day) or 8-hour (full day) virtual "sit." This small retreat helps us restore and begin a mindful practice of liberation. There are two sessions to accommodate different time zones. The event is by donation, and registration is required. The next Half/Day Sit will take place on October 19th.

Attending Rev's Half/Day Sit will open the door to the daily No Big Deal Morning Sits, a shorter "come as you are, leave as you must" daily practice.

We  invite you to get to know Rev angel's radical and impactful work.

Sheikh Ibrahim Baba
​We often express our gratitude to Dr. Ibrahim Abdurrahman Farajajé (may his secret be sanctified), dearly known to the many who studied with him as Ibrahim Baba.
​
​​We are excited to share this beautiful album, Makam Shekhina, filled with traditional Sufi liturgies, Hebrew chants, and new creative compositions each with woven teachings from Ibrahim Baba.​
​Makam Shekhina was founded by Sheikh Ibrahim Baba and Rav Kohenet Taya Mâ Shere through their immense delight of praying together in the realms of counter-oppressive devotion.

Listen to Makam Shekhina.
Read about the artists/the Makam Shekhina community, or purchase the album.
