Geshe Yeshe Thabkhe continues his brilliant teachings on The Rice Seedling Sutra: Buddha’s Teachings on Dependent Arising. Streamed on YouTube live.

Coming Soon!

Ven. Thubten Chodron teaches on “Insight Into Emptiness”

Twice a week this winter, Venerable Chodron will unpack Khensur Jampa Tegchok’s text on this profound topic.

Check back for schedule!

March 8 and 15

Saturday Double Feature!

Ven. Chodron teaches on The Seven-Point Mind Training in the morning, we move into the Buddha Hall in the afternoon!

Teachings are both Saturdays and Sundays.

Together we’re finishing the Buddha Hall

A spiritual home for all sentient beings

We have the keys to the Buddha Hall, but do not have the occupancy permit yet. That means we’re allowed to start moving in, but the building still isn’t ready for use.

Your support is welcomed!
