Open Door Dharma Circles

All are welcome.

At 4:00 pm we settle quietly. Simple chanting and stillness in the bhakti and Buddhist traditions soften our hearts and minds. The path shared by Ram Dass and Neem Karoli Baba, includes the wisdom of many teachers, cultures, and lineages. Our practice includes spacious awareness, chanting, and silence.

At 5:00 pm, a slight break for prasad shifts us into conversation on how these practices apply in a stressful time of global change.

Open Door Dharma Circles provide space to explore wisdom footprints left across time and cultures. They support resilience as we navigate being here now with open hearts and love for our beautiful planet home.

The door is open, come by when you can, whether to chant and sit, or for dharma dialogue, community, and conversation. Questions? Please contact us!
