On Sundays from 10:30 - 11:45am our resident teacher, Geshe Gelek Chodha, leads the Sunday morning program. It is appropriate for visitors and students of all levels of study and interest in Buddhism. The session includes a brief meditation, prayers, and the rare opportunity to learn from a highly trained Tibetan Buddhist monk. When Geshe-la is away, Venerable Tendron leads these sessions. Venerable Tendron completed the FPMT's five year study program in October 2007 at Chenrezig Institute in Australia. If you are unsure when to visit the center for the first time, Sunday is a great time to start. The teachings and prayers are offered in English.
Note that Family Sunday occurs at this time on the second Sunday of each month. On these days, we open our regular teachings with a special time for children and families. Also, a Newcomer's Orientation session is held afterwards on the second Sunday of every month and a Member's Orientation session is held afterwards on the third Sunday.
Special events are occasionally held on Sundays, so please check the calendar for more specific topics and information.
