How do things actually exist? To answer this question our Teacher Geshe Lobsang Nima has suggested that we continue our Dharma studies with "Precious Garland of Advice to a King", written by one of India’s greatest Buddhist philosophical thinkers and dharma practitioners, Nagarjuna. These sessions are a lively mix of study and discussion.

Free-of-charge and all are welcome!

Our Path
We practice Mahayana Buddhism, which presents a path for students to acquire the co​mpassion and wisdom needed to be of true help to others. We study and practice the "Lam Rim," a gradual path to be studied, contemplated, and finally actualized:

Lam Rim: Initial Stage
• Our Precious Human Life 
• Death and Impermanence
• Refuge in the Three Jewels
• Karma: Actions and Effects
Lam Rim: Medium Stage
• The Four Noble Truths

• General Suffering of Samsara
• The Specific Sufferings of Samsara
• 12 Links of Dependent Origination
Lam Rim: Highest Stage
• Developing Equanimity 
• Seeing All Beings as One's Mother
​• Recalling The Kindness of Mothers
• The Kindness of All Others
• Equalizing Self and Other
• Exchanging Self and Other
• Tonglen: Taking and Giving
• Great Compassion & Bodhichitta
• Tranquil Abiding Mind
• Emptiness of Phenomena
• Selflessness of Persons
• Loving Kindness Meditation

​​> * LEARN MORE ABOUT LAM RIM
New One-Year Course
Coming in 2026-27! This course will meet you where you are — whether you’re curious about Buddhism or already have some experience, the aim is to amplify your own potential for wisdom, compassion, and lasting peace. The year-long journey was designed by Geshe Lobsang Nima and created to help you deeply understand Buddhist philosophy and practice — not just as ideas, but as tools for real transformation.
