Discussion and debate are among the best tools for understanding and integrating the Dharma so that it is truly part of our minds. On these Thursday nights, we will meet in the gompa to watch teachings online from qualified teachers, and then discuss what we've heard. Upcoming session (June 10 - July 8): Shantideva's Guide to the Bodhisattva's Way of Life - Teachings by His Holiness the Dalai Lama, New Delhi, India, March 19-21, 2010 We will divide this three-day teaching by His Holiness into five video and discussion sessions. |
Because of the pandemic, this program limited to no more than 20 people; registration is required and limited to 20 participants.
Please keep in mind that this is an in-person event - unlike online events, each registration reserves one of a limited number of seats and precludes another person attending.
Students are required to wear masks while inside the Center.
This event will take place at the Center; there will be no online option. This group is led by long-time member Jack Shannon.
