Practice together

Come experience Buddhism with us

Previous experience with Buddhism is not required. We are a friendly, welcoming group—join us for a session or two.

A typical Zoom session begins with chanting and meditation to calm the mind and focus our thoughts. After a brief reading or teaching, we discuss how to apply what we have learned in daily life. Questions are always welcome.

Our gatherings

His Holiness the 14th Dalai Lama

The aim of Buddhist practice is to be rid of suffering and its causes and to bring about happiness and its causes.
