Foundation Program
The Foundation Program is ideal for anyone wishing to take a structured, systematic approach to Kadampa Buddhism. Foundation Program classes focus in detail on one particular Dharma text at a time, and we are currently studying the book Eight Steps to Happiness by Geshe Kelsang Gyatso. Six Dharma books in all are covered within the Foundation Program, over the course of several years.
Each class includes chanted prayers, meditation, teachings, and partner and group discussions.
