Tibetan Buddhist studies

integrating Buddha's teachings into daily practice

These monthly classes are designed to help us integrate the Buddha’s teachings for mindful living into our daily practice. As a Sangha, we will study, meditate upon and discuss a variety of antidotes which can be applied to dissolve our habitual suffering.

If you are a person with some background in Buddhism, a serious practitioner or just curious, this introduction to emptiness may be for you.

In 2010, we are studying Introduction to Emptiness as taught in Tsong-kha-pa's Great Treastise on the Stages of the Path by Guy Newland. 

Regarding emptiness, "Some tell you it doesn't matter. That is a lie. Everything, every single thing matters. And nothing good happens fast." - from Introduction to Emptiness

Text: Introduction to Emptiness as taught in Tsong-kha-pa's Great Treastise on the Stages of the Path by Guy Newland. We recommend purchasing this text from Snow Lion Publications, www.snowlion.com. Without ordering in advance, it will be difficult to find this text at a bookstore. 

Note: While each class is independent, for the deepest understanding of how to apply the teachings to your daily practice, we encourage you to read the text and make a commitment to yourself to attend all of the Buddhist Studies classes.

Snow Dates: The snow date for the January 10th class is January 13th. The snow date for the Feburary 21st class is Feburary 24th. The snow date for the March 21st class is March 24th.

In the event of inclement weather that might cause us to cancel, please call 610-285-6145. Our outgoing message will let you know if we will not hold the class.

Note: Online payment is accepted for these classes. 

Fee: $25.00 (per class, payable at each class; additional Dana (offering) for teacher if desired.)
