Who is Buddha? What did Buddha teach? How are Buddha's teachings still applicable in today's busy modern world? These are the types of questions we will explore in the class Introduction to Buddhism, based on the book by Geshe Kelsang Gyatso of the same title. You will learn basic Buddhist view, intention, and action, and how to apply these to the challenges of daily life.
Everyone is welcome of any religious or non-religious background. No need to attend each class; drop in any time.

"I used to see myself as having a professional life, a personal life, and a spiritual life. I now realize these were false distinctions on my part. We are indeed spiritual beings having a human experience. So I believe it is very important to integrate these valuable teachings into every aspect of our life. For me, at first, this was challenging-then it became meaningful and fun!"
