HELP WANTED: WQ assistant trainee


We need more than social media fame, Ji-Ji.
Help wanted. Recently, we were asked to come speak at a Buddhist temple in North Hollywood for Vesak (Buddhist Xmas) and did so. We were not told other speakers were speaking -- monks and philosophers.

Our Dharma editor so wowed the crowd and abbot with a powerful talk on the Three (most important) Things to understand in Buddhism that we were asked to return again a week later for the Friday night meditation group.
  • A week in the life, THIS WEEK:
  1. Vesak at Dhammakaya Garden Monastery, Sunday night
  2. Prepping for DisclosureFest.org, Monday night
  3. Visiting Hsi Lai Temple for lunch, Tuesday afternoon
  4. Visit with abbot, Dharma Vijaya Buddhist Vihara, Wednesday afternoon
  5. Zen Meditation sitting, Thursday night, Friends Meeting House, Pasadena
  6. Three Things (Dharma Talk), Friday night, Buddhist meditation center, North Hollywood
  7. Prom (dance), Saturday night, Morongo Casino, road to Joshua Tree
  8. Vegan potluck party and BBQ, Pasadena, Sunday afternoon
What is Zen practice other than the ordinary?
It became clear that Wisdom Quarterly and the Dharma Buddhist Meditation needs help, a personal assistant eager to learn about Buddhism, meditation, yoga, spirituality, vegetarian/vegan health, Meetup.com, and helping organize for-profit events. We will train.

These qualifications are helpful:
  • knowledge of social media
  • proficiency in cellphone use
  • living in Los Angeles or Orange County
  • interest in meditation practice
  • exercise of some sort (yoga, breathwork etc.)
  • interest or knowledge of the various Buddhisms
  • love and appreciation of some kind of music
  • enthusiastic about beach, prom, helping with live events
  • Appropriate for shy introverts, situational ambiverts, and even funny extroverts
Introduce yourself and indicate your interest at Dharma Buddhist Meditation (Dharma Buddhist Meditation) by sending a Meetup message to Ananda (using the Meetup Messaging System) or privately in the Comments Section below
