We live in difficult, transitional times. The most reliable and stabilizing thing we can do is to deepen our meditation practice, opening our hearts to others and to our ever changing lives. The course will engage Zen Buddhist and Tibetan teachings and practices for opening the heart. It will also use contemporary methods such as active listening to support our practice in relationships, at work, and in the world. 

We will study Zen’s activity of bodhisattvas, and the six perfections of Mahayana Buddhism: generosity, morality (meaningful behavior), patience, energy, meditation, and wisdom. We will also look into the four kinds of love: love, compassion, sympathetic joy, and equanimity. We will engage the practices of sitting meditation, loving-kindness, tonglen (giving and receiving), and Loving-Eyes.

Each class will include small group breakout sessions, practices, and homework. The live calls will be recorded and distributed weekly to course participants.

This 10-week online course will be easeful and accessible. You don’t have to be a Buddhist to benefit yourself and others.
