Upcoming Class Schedule & Topics
March 2026 – Solving our Inner Problems
Guided meditations and teachings with modern Buddhist monk Gen Tashi
In these classes we will explore timeless advice from Buddhist teachings on how to protect our peace of mind when difficulties arise or our wishes are not fulfilled. We will look at how to recognize, reduce and overcome painful states of mind such as anger and resentment, without repressing our feelings or taking it out on others. The practice of patient acceptance, when combined with wisdom and compassion, is the most effective way to work with our unhappy feelings, learn from them, and then heal our mind and our heart so that we can finally get some peace.
