1) Living with a Heart of Loving-Kindness with Kadam Ace Remas - October 3

Please join us for teachings and guided meditations on the three aspects of love - affectionate, cherishing and wishing love - presented by the eloquent and experienced Ace Remas, Resident Teacher at Mahakaruna Buddhist Center in Petaluma. Through his instruction on these teachings and meditations, Ace will help us deepen our understanding of love as taught by Buddha, showing us how to use this practice to enhance our peace of mind and benefit others. In these stressful times when our concerns can weigh on our hearts, Buddha's teachings on love can bring us the solace and relief that we long for.

2) Bright Stars in a Dark Sky with Tessa Logan – November 14

During this course, Tessa Logan will give teachings designed to help us deepen our experience of hope. When we have hope, we naturally experience a peaceful mind and are blessed with the ability to share that peace with those around us. These teachings and the guided meditations that accompany them will help us enrich our experience of hope and peace.

As we dedicate this course to world peace, all donations collected for this teaching will be forwarded to  the International Temples Project (ITP). The ITP was established by Venerable Geshe Kelsang Gyatso Rinpoche to fulfill his vision to build a Kadampa Buddhist Temple dedicated to inner and outer peace in every major city in the world.

We welcome you to join us in transforming our hectic world into a place of hope, peace and harmony.

3) Introduction to Tantra with Tessa Logan - December 12

We sometimes feel as though we have no direction in our lives, and that everything seems ordinary. However, according to Buddha, our potential for happiness and meaning is virtually limitless. In his teachings on Tantra, he reveals how to identify with our potential in order to bring it into being swiftly. During this course, Tessa will explain the technology of Tantra and learn how Buddha's methods will help us to live the inspired life that we yearn for.
