Theme: Impermanence Artwork: Stupa [http://therubin.org/2y-] Teacher: Tracy Cochran “Impermanence is not just about death or birth or difficult change. It can be. But it can also be about the idea that when we embrace change, when we accept this reality, we are suddenly very awake, very present in the moment and very in tune with each other.” —Dawn Eshelman The Rubin Museum of Art presents a weekly meditation session led by a prominent meditation teacher from the New York area, with each session focusing on a specific work of art.
