SOLVE YOUR PROBLEMS WITH THE HEART SUTRA | SAT NOV 22 | 10am-5 pm |

The Heart Sutra is the condensed presentation of the Perfection of Wisdom Sutras taught by Buddha Shakyamuni. Gaining even a little insight with the Heart Sutra will profoundly change our understanding of everything around us and within us. We will begin to understand how to protect ourself from sickness, fears, and dangers, and experience deep inner peace through our experience of emptiness. Chanting the Heart Sutra is used to clear obstacles and does not require deep meditation experience to work. Emerge feeling lighter, wiser, and empowered to overcome obstacles in daily life.

“Meditation on emptiness is the universal solution to all our problems. It is the medicine that cures all mental and physical diseases, and the nectar that bestows the everlasting happiness of nirvana and enlightenment.”
—Geshe Kelsang Gyatso

Includes brief teachings, guided meditations, and time for Q&A.

WORKSHOP: THE BUDDHIST PERSPECTIVE ON CONFLICT AND CHAOS | OCT 18 | 10am-12:30 PM |

Why do conflicts arise — and how can we respond wisely?
Whether in our personal relationships, at work, or in the wider world, conflict is an unavoidable part of life. But it doesn’t have to lead to anger, resentment, or division.
In this workshop, Michael Racadio will share how Buddhist teachings offer a fresh and transformative approach to dealing with conflict — both within ourselves and with others.
