In the Living Dharma class series, we study the traditional Buddhist teachings from the Insight meditation tradition and learn how to apply them to daily life for greater ease, clarity, and well being. There will be time for longer meditations, instruction, Dharma talks, small group work, reflections and discussion to deepen learning together in community.

This intermediate class is appropriate for those students with previous meditation experience who have taken a previous mindfulness, Living Dharma, or Buddha’s Path class.

Participants will be strongly encouraged to meditate for at least 30 minutes daily to support the deepening of their understanding.

Please note, this is a class series, not a drop-in group. Please sign up with the intention of attending as many sessions as possible to get the most out of class and to leave space open for other students who would like to commit to the full session.

We are deeply grateful to our community members for their understanding, patience, and support through this challenging and life changing chapter of our journey together. We are eager to move into the next phase of our adventure. In keeping with the principals of the dharma that underlies all of our activities, primarily ‘do no harm,’ we are requiring that all attendees be fully vaccinated in order to attend any in-person event. If you certify that you meet this requirement please select ‘yes’ on the registration page. This requirement is for the initial stage of reopening and we are looking forward to practicing together once again in-person! Max capacity 35. Please be sure to read the Benedict Canyon page for parking info and items to bring.
