We practice Mahayana Buddhism, which presents a path for students to acquire the compassion 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. > LEARN MORE Tibetan for Beginners
FUTURE SCHEDULE, TBD Plans are ongoing to resume “Tibetan for Beginners” by a life-long speaker of Tibetan, educator, and fellow Dharma student Dickey Meghna Rai. > Video Playlist of past classes Above: Dickie teaching the Tibetan letters
