She is deeply grateful for her Asian teachers and interested in how we can best support Buddhism\u2019s lineage traditions in ways that feel accessible, inclusive, and relevant to our complex times.<\/p>\n<p>She is the co-author\u2014with partner nico\u2014of <a href=\"https:\/\/devonandnicohase.com\/our-new-book\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><em>How Not To Be A Hot Mess: A Survival Guide for Modern Life,<\/em><\/a> which offers six pieces of semi-Buddhist advice to keep you anchored and steadied amidst life\u2019s inevitable chaos.<\/p>\n<p>IMS Staff Writer Raquel Baetz sat down with Devon to talk about her upcoming virtual mini retreat \u201cKalyana Mitta: Spiritual Friendship as the Path to Freedom.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Devon will begin a year-long retreat after this program, so this will be the last opportunity to practice with her until January 2023.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>What inspired you to focus on the topic of \u201cKalyana Mitta: <\/strong><strong>Spiritual Friendship as the Path to Freedom<\/strong><strong>\u201d for this mini retreat?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Lately, I\u2019ve been teaching quite a bit on friendship and relationships. Many of the early Buddhist texts are oriented around how to be a good friend, how to relate to others, and how to live in community. The Buddha really emphasized relational practice and I think sometimes we forget how to do this.<\/p>\n<p>The Dharma is often practiced nowadays as a solitary pursuit\u2014it\u2019s about taking care of our own minds and bodies, and we need a lot of peace and quiet to do that. But there\u2019s this whole other aspect of the Dharma which is about being in the world and relating to other people and being a good friend to ourselves.<\/p>\n<p>This topic feels like an important and timely focus to take in a world that\u2019s been in isolation due to the pandemic. A lot of relationships and ways of connecting are shifting quickly. So, I wanted to focus on what the Buddha had to say in terms of relational practice. Learning how to be a wise friend feels necessary right now.<\/p>\n<p><strong>What is a \u201cwise friend\u201d and why is this important? How can someone be a wise friend to themselves?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>In the Mitta Sutta, the Buddha lays out the seven qualities of a good friend. For example, a good friend does what\u2019s hard to do, says what\u2019s hard to say, and endures what\u2019s hard to endure. They keep your secrets. They don\u2019t abandon you when you\u2019re in hardship or when you\u2019re struggling, and they don\u2019t judge you for it.<\/p>\n<p>What I love about those instructions is that they apply to our relationship with ourselves too. Being human is hard. When we struggle or we\u2019re working through difficult emotions\u2014and there\u2019s a lot of reasons to feel anxious, fearful, and lonely right now\u2014there\u2019s often this additional layer of judgment on ourselves.<\/p>\n<p>We imagine that if we\u2019re struggling, it\u2019s because we did something wrong or it\u2019s our fault. That\u2019s a bit like abandoning or judging a friend who\u2019s struggling. With this teaching, the Buddha is encouraging us not to judge ourselves when we struggle with life\u2019s ups and downs, knowing that a good friend wouldn\u2019t judge us.<\/p>\n<p>When we practice on our cushion in formal meditation, we\u2019re creating a calm, quiet, caring space for ourselves. This is when we are showing up and staying with what\u2019s difficult, not abandoning ourselves, being willing to look at what\u2019s difficult inside.<\/p>\n<p>We\u2019re also being honest with ourselves. Joseph Goldstein often says, \u201cSelf-knowledge is always bad news.\u201d So, sometimes we can get discouraged (and surprised!) when we sit down and see all the machinations of our heart-mind. We need to cultivate steadiness of mind. And through this, a friendliness that can accompany all the difficulties. We can be our own best friend, encouraging ourselves and creating good companionship inside.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Is being a \u201cwise friend\u201d different than being a \u201cspiritual friend\u201d?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>I often use \u201cwise friend\u201d and \u201cspiritual friend\u201d interchangeably. A spiritual friend can sometimes take on connotations of how we relate to teachers or mentors; those who have laid out the path for us to practice.<\/p>\n<p>However, I think the reason why I like to use \u201cwise friend\u201d and \u201cspiritual friend\u201d interchangeably is that from a certain perspective, we see that everybody is our teacher. We can learn from every single relationship we have: our pets, our beloveds, our neighbors, people who disagree with us politically, etc. Everyone can be a teacher if we can see them as presenting the opportunity for us to cultivate wisdom, compassion, and friendliness.<\/p>\n<p><strong>How does someone give (or receive) as a wise friend?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Just as we cultivate friendship with ourselves, we can step out into the world and bring those same qualities to those around us. It\u2019s often hard to be a wise friend. It\u2019s difficult not to judge. It\u2019s difficult to be honest sometimes. This practice helps us not turn away, not abandon, and not fear. It helps us cultivate the steadiness and willingness to do what\u2019s hard. To say, \u201cI&#8217;m in it with you. I won&#8217;t leave.\u201d That kind of messaging is so important these days.<\/p>\n<p>Doing a retreat is another way to be a spiritual friend. Our practice has the power to help us cultivate courage and clarity and feel deeply connected to the world. Retreat helps us grow a heart that is strong enough to go back into the world and endure what\u2019s hard to endure and be with people in a very real and honest way.<\/p>\n<p><strong>What did the Buddha mean when he said, &#8220;Admirable friendship, admirable companionship, admirable camaraderie is actually the whole of the holy life?\u201d<em> \u00a0<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n<p>There\u2019s a beautiful teaching in which the Buddha\u2019s cousin and caretaker, Ananda, comes to the Buddha with this big insight. He says, \u201cBuddha, Buddha, I figured it out. I figured out that spiritual friendship is half of the holy life.\u201d And the Buddha says, \u201cNot so, not so, Ananda. Don&#8217;t say that it\u2019s only half, it\u2019s the whole of the holy life.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>It\u2019s such a beautiful spiritual question. How is it that we have so many teachings, for example, the Four Noble Truths, the Eightfold Path, the five aggregates, etc., and all of it relates to spiritual friendship?<\/p>\n<p>I love this teaching because we\u2019re always relating to something. We\u2019re relating to ourselves but we\u2019re also relating to the weather, to our roommates, to the people in the grocery store, to other drivers, etc. Every situation we find ourselves in puts us into relationship with someone or something else. Every moment is an opportunity to cultivate a steady, kind, friendly attitude. No matter what happens\u2014and anything could happen at any time\u2014if we greet each new moment with this friendliness, it\u2019s a good way to be free. And this is a frame for what it means to be enlightened.<\/p>\n<p><strong>What can attendees expect when they join this mini retreat?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>These mini retreats are so beautiful because they really are a retreat, even though they\u2019re a few hours on a Saturday morning. The practice of sharing Dharma together and sitting and walking in silence can build a powerful container of practice in sangha. So, we will be sharing some of these ideas and putting them into practice in our silent sitting and walking. The words can be an invitation or guidance for how to incline our minds and then the magic happens when we\u2019re just practicing together very simply.<\/p>\n<p>I\u2019ll be focusing on the relationship we have with our own hearts. We may do some <em>metta<\/em> practice, sharing friendliness with other people or situations in the world, but mostly I want to cultivate a container for self-care. More and more I find that online practice is powerful, there\u2019s a kind of solidarity and sangha that can happen even in a small group of people, all scattered around, but meeting in a virtual space that can very much support and inspire our practice.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Any final words about the retreat that you want people to know?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>A lot of gratitude and appreciation for those who are interested in taking some time out of their weekend to do this precious and noble practice. It\u2019s not always easy, especially in our home environments, to step away. Focusing on friendship is such a good way to start with this practice because we\u2019re building a habit pattern of moving through our environment with more compassion, wisdom, and mindfulness.<\/p>\n<p>Independence, confidence, and self-reliance also comes when we practice at home together. It might be harder than being in person, but it\u2019s a good kind of hard because we\u2019re training new muscles and new habits right here at home.<\/p>\n<p>I\u2019m so grateful for IMS Online, as it provides this wonderful opportunity for us to come together and cultivate sangha, right here and right now, wherever we may live.<\/p>\n<p><em>For more information, and to register for this IMS Online Mini Retreat, click<a href=\"https:\/\/ims.dharma.org\/courses\/a-wise-friend-spiritual-friendship-as-the-path-to-freedom\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><strong>here<\/strong><\/a>.<\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>IMS Online Mini Retreat with Devon Hase Kalyana Mitta: Spiritual Friendship as the Path to Freedom Saturday, November 13, 2021 9:00 am &#8211; 12:45 pm ET \u00a0 Devon Hase started meditating and studying Dharma in 2000.
