An introduction to the Practice of Mahamudra with Laura Kaufman

Please join us for this introduction to Mahamudra, the cherished living meditation lineage of the Karma Kagyu tradition. Though Mahamudra practice is simplicity itself, preparation is essential.  We will explore the warm heart and open mind of the Mahamudra practitioner and the essential points of practice.

All are welcome to this in-person program.  An established shamatha meditation practice will provide the foundation for connecting with these precious teachings. You are asked to support the container by arriving on time and bringing a bag lunch for our silent midday meal.

This event will not be recorded.

This is an in-person event only.
