Liberation From Suffering

We hold meetings several times a week over Zoom. These meetings offer a chance to study and practice Buddhism together with your peers. You can learn about different types of meditation and get answers to your questions about Buddhism.

Our discussion is presented for a Western audience. We make traditional Buddhism accesible. We are open to everyone who wants to learn about Buddhism. Buddhism offers a path to a more peaceful and serene life. Draw on the teachings of the Buddha to find meaning and freedom from anxiety.

Our senior lay-instructors, with more than 60 years experience in the Dharma, have been trained and practice in the the Tibetan Drikung Kagyu lineage together with teachings from Karma Kagyu and Nyingma masters.

The Jewel Ornament of Liberation book discussion will be held every Thursday at 7 PM EST starting January 8, 2026. Topics will include:

• Motivational and Dedication Prayers
