SUMMARY:Long Protector Puja
DESCRIPTION:  \nThis 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.

SUMMARY:Foundation Program
DESCRIPTION:We are studying How to Understand the Mind by living Buddhist Master Geshe Kelsang Gyatso. This book offers us deep insight into our mind\, and shows us how an understanding of its nature and functions can be used practically in everyday experience to improve our lives. \n  \nThrough systematic study and meditation on this program we can deepen our understanding and insight of Buddha’s teachings\, gain confidence in our meditation practice\, and transform our lives by transforming our own mind. By learning to understand our own experiences of difficulty\, problems\, and suffering\, we will be better able to support to those around us\, and impact their lives in a more positive\, meaningful way. \n  \nThis study program requires enrollment\, with a commitment to attend scheduled classes.
