DESCRIPTION:Paravrtti Doralee Grindler Katonah serves as Ino\, or head of the meditation hall\, and president of the Valley Streams Board of Directors. She studied in the Soto Zen lineage with Sojun Diane Martin in Illinois and Rev. Val Szymanski in California. She was priest ordained in 2019 by Sojun Diane Martin. \nA Practice Circle: Exploring the Many Faces of Compassion Through Listening Together to our Experiences and Reflections.  Rhonda Mcgee wrote: “Compassion is the will\, the wherewithal\, and the motivation to actually do something to assist in alleviating suffering\, whether it’s our own or others. We need compassion that embraces our own suffering – self-compassion.  And we need compassion that embraces the suffering of others – other-regarding compassion.” \n*Zoom link for this program: https://us02web.zoom.us/j/82008151977
