SUMMARY:Foundation Program via Zoom
DESCRIPTION:We are studying Joyful Path of Good Fortune\, living Buddhist Master Geshe Kelsang Gyatso’s extraordinary explanation of Lamrim meditation. Lamrim is a special presentation of all Buddha’s teachings in the order in which they can be practiced easily in our busy lives. Taken as personal advice\, we can contemplate each Lamrim instruction\, allowing the meaning to guide us to very precise meditation objects which improve our ability to maintain a stable experience of peace in our own mind. \nThrough the systematic study that the Foundation Program offers we can deepen our understanding and insight of Buddha’s teachings and profoundly transform our lives\, reducing and eventually eliminating our personal experiences of difficulty\, problems\, and suffering. Consequently\, we can offer support to those around us and have a positive and meaningful impact on their lives as well. \nThis study program requires enrollment\, with a commitment to attend scheduled classes. Classes meet on most Tuesday and Friday nights. Please click here to see Fall 2020 schedule.\n \nPlease speak with our center Admin Director\, Teresa Kuntz\, or Resident Teacher\, Kadam Keli Vaughan for information on enrollment in the Foundation Program.

SUMMARY:Thursday Evening Meditation Class via Zoom
DESCRIPTION:Let Go of the Past – The Art of Forgiving \nBuddha’s teachings on the pointlessness and pain of resentment and anger lead us to contemplations on patience\, karma\, and emptiness. This series of meditation classes examines these precious topics as a way to let the past go\, and to move into a more peaceful present. We will explore special ways of thinking that help us to let go of anger towards ourself and others\, and then meditate together on our new\, uplifted understanding. \n\n\nSign up here to receive an invitation to attend our online Zoom meditation classes \n\n  \nEach class begins with a guided breathing meditation and culminates with a second meditation based upon the evening’s topic. Drop in to any or all classes in this course. Perfect for beginners or those with meditation experience. Open to everyone.

SUMMARY:Foundation Program via Zoom
DESCRIPTION:We are studying Joyful Path of Good Fortune\, living Buddhist Master Geshe Kelsang Gyatso’s extraordinary explanation of Lamrim meditation. Lamrim is a special presentation of all Buddha’s teachings in the order in which they can be practiced easily in our busy lives. Taken as personal advice\, we can contemplate each Lamrim instruction\, allowing the meaning to guide us to very precise meditation objects which improve our ability to maintain a stable experience of peace in our own mind. \nThrough the systematic study that the Foundation Program offers we can deepen our understanding and insight of Buddha’s teachings and profoundly transform our lives\, reducing and eventually eliminating our personal experiences of difficulty\, problems\, and suffering. Consequently\, we can offer support to those around us and have a positive and meaningful impact on their lives as well. \nThis study program requires enrollment\, with a commitment to attend scheduled classes. Classes meet on most Tuesday and Friday nights. Please click here to see Fall 2020 schedule.\n \nPlease speak with our center Admin Director\, Teresa Kuntz\, or Resident Teacher\, Kadam Keli Vaughan for information on enrollment in the Foundation Program.

SUMMARY:Powa Prayers
DESCRIPTION:Through practicing transference of consciousness — known as ‘powa’ — with faith\, compassion\, and concentration we can transfer the consciousness of those recently deceased to a higher rebirth or to the Pure Land of a Buddha. The Powa Ceremony can be done either by a group of practitioners or individually on behalf of one or more deceased persons\, or countless deceased beings. By engaging in this practice we also create a great collection of virtue\, which will also lead us into the pathway to a Buddha’s Pure Land. \nAll chanted prayers are free – please email us for a zoom invite.

SUMMARY:Long Protector Puja
DESCRIPTION:This extensive sadhana—ritual prayers for spiritual attainments—is called “Kangso” in Tibetan\, which means “Fulfilling and Restoring Ritual.” \nUsually performed once a month in Dharma Centers in our tradition\, it is used for fulfilling our heart commitment to practice Lamrim\, Lojong\, and Mahamudra\, for restoring any degenerate or broken commitments we may have incurred\, and to rely on the Dharma Protector Dorje Shugden\, regarding him as inseparable from our Spiritual Guide and Buddha. \nAll chanted prayers are free\, and everyone is welcome to attend. Please email us for a zoom link.
