The Kalachakra deity represents omniscience, as everything is under...

Join us for a day of exploration of how attachment and desire, and even addiction which is just a stronger form of attachment, cause suffering,...

Psychotherapist and author Karuna Cayton will talk about his book. He introduces a process for working with, rather than against, depression, anxiety, and stress by recognizing the habitual ways our minds perceive, react, and ultimately mislead us. He also presents practical exercises for stepping onto the path of a radically liberating self-understanding. While the essence of the wisdom he presents is central to Buddhism, he covers it in a way that is accessible to all.

"Some of you might think, 'Oh, I want to have nothing to do with Jesus, nothing to do with the Bible.' This is a very angry, emotional attitude to have towards Christianity. If you really understood, you would recognize that what Jesus taught was, 'Love!' It is as simple and as profound as that. If you had true love...
