FOR MORE EXPERIENCED MEDITATORS
The Words That Lead to Enlightenment
February 25th - April 29th
In this course we will work our way through the 19th century text by Patrul Rinpoche: The Words of My Perfect Teacher, a "detailed guide to the methods by which an ordinary person can transform his or her consciousness and set off on the path to Buddhahood."
Intended for those with a familiarity in Buddhism and seeking a path for deeper study, each session is one half commentary by Lodro/guided contemplations on the key points, and one half small group discussion on how to integrate these ancient teachings into our modern life. Part class, part discussion group, this is a chance for a small number of students to go deep in their studies.
The Mindfulness Teacher Training
Starts March 21st
You’re invited to join a select group of students to train in becoming a certified meditation teacher through The Basic Goodness Collective. Compared to other teacher trainings, this one is deep, personal, and will give you everything you need to speak from a breadth of your own meditation experience.
