MBC-Recitation in English: Main focus –The First Field of Practice: Anchoring my personal practice

Topline: To build community and strengthen our individual resolve, we will offer a bi-monthly recitation of the Mindful Business Commitment starting March 6, 7.45 -8.45 a.m. (CET: Amsterdam, Paris, Berlin...)

For dedicated practitioners who wish to build community and strengthen their individual resolve, we offer a bi-monthly recitation of the Mindful Business Commitment (MBC). We have been reciting the Mindful Business Commitment together online in German since March 2019. Many of us appreciate this regular practice as strengthening, connecting and nurturing.

In 2022 we decided to offer the recitation in English as well — as nourishment for our growing international business sangha.

We will recite the MBC on the first Monday of each month. In even months, we will use the German version and in odd months we will recite the English version. Subsequent sharing will take place in the language(s) most suited to the participants. With a beginner´s mind we look forward to practicing together in the common language of mindfulness.

These recitations are a chance for us to connect with our deeper intentions, in a group of like-minded practitioners. This is not a beginner event or introduction to the Network for Mindful business. We ask that you read the Mindful Business Commitment in advance to see if the content speaks to you. The recitation allows those who feel a resonance to remind themselves of their resolve, deepen their contemplation and light their path.

Time is dedicated to sharing our experiences and practices. While allowing room for uncertainties or the koan-like questions that we may carry with us, the dharma sharing should not become a discussion of business ethics or economic ideas.

At our retreats, there is generally a chance to publicly commit to these principles in a circle of friends. Speak to Kai Romhardt if you are curious whether a particular retreat will offer this “Ceremony of Support”.

It can be helpful to bring your own printed copy of the MBC to the reading. Our website offers the MBC in several languages. 

We start at 7.45 and end at 8.45 a.m. (CET, Amsterdam, Paris, Berlin...). Please dial in some minutes before the start so that we have a relaxed and concentrated start together... :-)
