We're back this Sunday and we're so glad to have Grace Lee joining us to explore the Ten Perfections (Pāramīs) — virtues cultivated over many lifetimes on the path to awakening. They are understood as essential qualities of heart and mind that support liberation.

These teachings have a way of landing differently depending on where we are in our lives. However they meet you, we'd love to have you!

What is Nibbāna? What does it look like when someone is fully enlightened? What might it look and feel like when you are fully enlightened, and how might you practice for this highest of all happiness?

GRACE TALICE LEE is a queer, nonbinary, autistic, direct descendant of immigrants and refugees. Grace has loved the Dhamma for several lifetimes, but in this current birth they began meditation training in 2016, started teaching in 2025, and co-led their first residential retreat in 2026. She offers several books about Dhamma practice, including a travelogue about a 2-week pilgrimage to the Thai Forest Masters which is freely available for download at www.karunabv.org/books.

What happens after this life? And what does true freedom feel like in this one? 🕯️

Join us for a Dharma talk with Grace Lee on two of Buddhism’s most profound teachings: Rebirth and Nibbāna.

Grace will offer an accessible, down‑to‑earth exploration of these teachings, no philosophy degree required.

We are pleased to invite you to a special Dharma talk March 22nd, with our own sangha member, Grace Lee!

Grace will be offering a talk on one of the most foundational teachings of the Buddha: The Three Marks of Existence—Anicca (impermanence), Anatta (not-self), and Dukkha (unsatisfactoriness).

You can learn more about Grace in the second slide before visiting the link in our bio for Zoom information & more.

We’re sharing some of our latest Spotlights to celebrate the writers, artists, and activists who make this digital residency so great. As we always like to say, we never quite know who our calls will reach, so it is really meaningful when we get to know the folks whom we work with so well. 🙏🏽💫
.
Scroll through to get to know each resident, and tap the link in our bio to find more Spotlights from past digital residents. And if you’re interested in joining us this fall, you can learn more about Narrative Shifts at our link in bio, too. Applications due 6/30. 🌊🌊🌊🌊🌊🌊🌊

THANK YOU SAN JOSE! Thank you I appreciate all the folks that came out to @sanjoseday and made it to my booth! Every conversation, every purchase, and every smile keeps me going as an artist/art business. Thanks for supporting me in this artist journey! Without you I am just an artist in a studio. The fact that you support and love your city means so much. Keep showing up to local events, support local artists and businesses. Let’s keep this movement alive! Shout out to @haleyonthemoon and the SJDayTEAM for making it happen! Much love, Rayos Magos🙏🏽⚡️✨🙌🏽🌞🤘🏽🦈 #sanjose #sanjoseday #sanjoseday2025 #sjc #408 #artfair #artvendor #localart #localartist #merch #vendorbooth #latinxart #latinxartist #chicanoart #chicanoartist #printmaker #printmakersofinstagram #reliefprints #linocutprints #printmaking #rayosmagos #2025

Applications for our Spring 2025 Digital Residency close in one week. 🌱
.
If you’re looking to jumpstart your creative practice in community with writers, artists, and activists from around the world, here’s one way to do so this spring!
.
Our digital residency, Narrative Shifts, offers a seven-week, genre-agnostic program that shifts the emphasis from publication to process, and helps you get a better understanding of who you are as a creative in the world. 🤗 You’ll receive tons of resources, engage in generative writing prompts and discussions, and walk away with a stellar community of writing colleagues, some fresh ideas, and inspiration toward the page.
.
No cost to apply, and the application itself is simple and straightforward. Consider this your gentle nudge to hold space for yourself and your writing this year. ✨
.
Any questions at all, just reach out to us at residency@seventhwavemag.com. We can’t wait to get to know you and your work! 🌊🌊🌊🌊🌊🌊🌊

Applications for our 2025 Spring Digital Residency are now open. ❤️‍🔥🎙️🌊.
.
Are you looking for community, mentorship, or accountability? Narrative Shifts, our digital residency, may be the perfect space for you and your work. This genre-agnostic writing program consists of seven sessions over seven weeks, helping writers at any stage of their careers find an answer to the question, “What next?” 🙌🏿🙌🏾🙌🏽🙌🏼.
.
For Spring 2025, we’re running 3 x cohorts of 12-16 residents, each meeting on a different day/time. You can see info about the program above, as well as words from some of our past residents—@winitaetc, @huiyin.zhou, @lettersbyliana, @chiioganihu, and @gracetalicelee—about their experiences in the program. And shoutout to our guest writers @melissafebos and @kmingchang for joining our bonus sessions this past fall and sharing your many stones of wisdom with our residents. 🙌🏿🙌🏾🙌🏽🙌🏼.
.
More info coming soon, like introducing our facilitators for Spring 2025: @jchenchen, @callmangs, and Avi-Yona Israel. Link in bio to learn more and apply. 🌊🌊🌊🌊🌊🌊🌊
