Tonight we started Part 2 of The New Heart of Wisdom
with Resident Teacher, John Baker. We had 12 people in person and 6 online!!!

There is still time to join the Foundation Program! We’re beginning Part Two of the book, The New Heart of Wisdom, which contains all of Buddha’s teachings on the vast path. We’ll be studying the paths of persons of initial and middling scopes, and the practices of love, compassion and bodhichitta.

Through listening, contemplating, discussing, and meditating on these teachings we’ll gain something very important, a familiarity that allows us to take Buddha’s teachings deep into our heart. Then, all of our experiences will be the path to liberation and enlightenment. More info in our bio.

Everyone Welcome, no experience necessary. The pressures of the modern world can sometimes feel impossible to navigate. Balancing work, family, friends, and trying to find hope and meaning in the midst of life’s demands can be challenging. If you find yourself feeling lost and powerless faced with the horrors of war, famine, sickness and the many problems that plague our world, then you may benefit from Prayers for World Peace. You are invited to join us for a short teaching, a guided meditation, and prayers for peace in the world. This is a way to direct spiritual energy toward wishing happiness for all beings, through the process of correct imagination. All things arise from the mind, so if we can create a space where we imagine world peace, then we can make it happen together.
