$15
free for members
Many people have the altruistic wish to help others and the world, but few understand how to accomplish this successfully in daily life. Bodhisattvas are friends of the world, which means that they care about everyone. Through the force of their strong compassion, they engage in six special practices, called the six perfections, that enable them to transform all their activities into methods for helping and benefiting everyone. Discover the joy and profound meaning in learning to live a life of service.
Each class will include guided meditation, practical instruction, and time for questions. No previous experience is necessary, and absolutely everyone is welcome!
This class is held in person, and is also available by livestream for monthly members.
