The organization is run by individuals dedicated to providing an integrated educational experience through which minds and hearts can be transformed into their highest potential for the benefit of all sentient beings.
We host Buddhist teachings, guided meditations, weekly classes, and other related events.

Finding genuine inner peace and happiness can seem like an elusive goal in the midst of life's complexities and challenges. The ancient wisdom of the Lamrim, or "Graduated Path to Enlightenment," offers a clear and practical roadmap for navigating this journey of self-discovery and transformation.
In this illuminating teaching, we will explore the Lamrim teachings step-by-step, unveiling a profound and timeless path to lasting well-being and happiness.
Geshe Sherab was born in 1967 in a small village in the province of Manang, the western part of Nepal. He entered Kopan Buddhist Monastery at the age of nine and completed his Geshe studies at Sera Je monastery in South India, followed by a year at Gyumed Tantric College. He understands and connects very well with Western students, presenting Buddhism in an accessible, warm, and open manner.

The Seven-Point Mind Training
by B. Alan WallaceRegistration for in-person or via Zoom at: Dharmakaya Center
In this society, with its hurly-burly pace demanding of our time, it is ever so easy to let life slip by. Looking back after ten, twenty, thirty, years—we wonder what we have accomplished. The process of simply existing is not necessarily meaningful. And yet there is an unlimited potential for meaning and value in this human existence.
The Seven-Point Mind Training is one eminently practical way of tapping into that meaning. At the heart of the Seven-Point Mind Training lies the transformation of the circumstances that life brings us, however hard as the raw material from which we create our spiritual path. The central theme of the Seven-Point Mind Training is to make the liberating passage from the constricting solitude of self-centeredness to the warm kinship with others which occurs with the cultivation of cherishing others.
