DEAR FRIENDS,
All classes, unless otherwise indicated, are at DYC
Sears Lofts, 2633 Telegraph Ave., #305, Oakland, CA 94612
The LIUDAO and BAMBOO Assemblies are made up of people who are practicing “zuowang” non-conceptual meditation (1 hour a day) in a minimum one-year commitment. At present Liudao assembly has been meeting for more than 14 years and is full. The Bamboo assembly is open to new participants (see website for how to get instruction and join). These assemblies happen each month to study Laozi/Daodejing and the various practices of DYC.
The NOURISHING WITHIN series is about the inner/outer qi quality of the 24 Qi Nodes that define the seasons of the Chinese lunar almanac/calendar. What food, conduct and medical treatments are most effective in calibrating our qi to Nature (Dao) – what is health and synchronicity? References are made to Chinese almanac astrology, medical Classics, Daoist, Buddhist and Confucian philosophy and the direct experience of everyday life. These classes are open to everyone. The class includes lecture, cooking class/meal and discussion. (4 Category 1 CEUs for California Licensed Acupuncturists are available [Provider #609]).

The MANTIC ARTS series presents Chinese Divination, Astrology and Fengshui (geomancy) in lecture format. This series is not a course. It is open to beginners and advanced students. Each month the presentation will be about an aspect of the Chinese mantic (divinatory) arts with time for questions/answers about the various applications contained in Liu Ming’s forth-coming Mantic Arts workbook. Those attending each session have an opportunity to influence the following month’s subject matter. Pre-registration is not required but email us if you can to let us know you are coming. In NOVEMBER it will be Part Two of a 2-part series on the Yijing/Zhouyi – if you wish to listen to Part One it is available as a download from the our on-line store. http://www.dayuancircle.com/zencart
This year the DYC CHINESE NEW YEAR PRESENTATION
will be held at Julia Morgan Theatre in Berkeley @ 6pm on February 6, 2010.
Julia Morgan theatre holds nearly 400 people so we will have only one presentation this year. I hope we can all kick off the Tiger Year together!
It is the year of the Yang Metal TIGER and Liu Ming’s presentation promises to be provocative and insightful. What do Agatha Christie, Ho Chi Minh, the PRC invasion of Tibet and the aluminum cooking pots have in common? LOL All Tiger year people and events! Come learn about “gyalpos” – the demons that characterize the year 2010!!!
