Practicing the Mahayana (Great Vehicle) Buddhist teachings focuses around the practice and development of six virtues: Meditation, Generosity, Discipline, Patience, Exertion, and Wisdom. The Buddhist teachings on these actions goes well beyond our everyday understanding of these words. Through guided meditation practice, lectures and discussion, we will deepen our understanding of what practicing these actions means in daily life, instead of viewing them as perfect virtues that we wish we already possessed.
Open to everyone. Meditation Instruction is part of each class
