Inspiring Quotes

What exactly is compassion? Compassion is a mind that is motivated by cherishing other living beings and wishes to release them from their suffering.

Our Center
Dewikoti Buddhist Center in Marin is a member of the New Kadampa Tradition (NKT), established by Ven. Geshe Kelsang Gyatso. It is a branch of Mahakaruna Center in Petaluma. It also closely affiliated with sister Centers in Northern California -- Saraha, Dzalandhara and Duldzin Dragpa.

Ven. Geshe Kelsang gave us the name "Dewikoti" which is the name of a Buddha's Pure Land, a realm beyond suffering that we can attain by purifying and transforming our mind. It is an appropriate name for a Center in beautiful Marin County!

We are also planning to gradually open more branches in Marin. If you are interested in seeing meditation classes held in your area, please let us know.
