Essence of Refined Gold
Venerable Chodron broadcasts a weekly commentary on this classic lamrim text by the Third Dalai Lama via telephone and streaming video. Essence of Refined Gold concisely details the steps of the gradual path to enlightenment. This week’s teaching comes live from DFF. Come early. The teaching is preceded by thirty minutes of silent meditation.

Please join us at the DFF center in Magnolia for teachings by Ven. Thubten Chodron. Ven. Chodron is the former resident teacher and Spiritual Advisor of DFF. Seeing the importance and necessity of a monastery for Westerners training in the Tibetan Buddhist tradition, Venerable Chodron founded Sravasti Abbey near Spokane, Washington. Venerable Chodron emphasizes the practical application of Buddha's teachings in our daily lives and is especially skilled at explaining them in ways easily understood and practiced by Westerners. She is well known for her warm, humorous, and lucid teachings.

Suggested donation: $15.00. No one turned away for lack of funds. Buddhist teachings are given freely. Your donation helps to support Dharma Friendship Foundation in bringing qualified Buddhist Teachers to the region
