Buddhism in a Nutshell
|
with Don Isaacson
Mondays, 7:00pm – 8:30pm January 12 – February 2, 2015 This is an introductory course that provides a general overview of basic Buddhist philosophy for complete beginners or a “refresher” for those who have some experience. It does not assume that those who come for this course know anything at all about Buddhism or about meditation. Anyone is welcome to attend who is interested in learning something about Buddhism in its various forms presented in a Tibetan Mahayana context.

This is a great opportunity to learn about Buddhism in a relaxed environment, and each class includes time for meditation and discussion. Join Don Isaacson, an experienced long-time practitioner, as he introduces you to Buddhist principles with a focus on how they can help you in your daily life.

Anyone is welcome to attend any or all sessions.
