Dear Dharma Friends,
Our schedule this week includes Green Tara yidam practice on Wednesday July 27 at 7pm. Our Tuesday & Thursday classes and Saturday & Sunday practices remain as usual.
Please note: while the CDC has not raised the Allegheny County Covid transmission level recently, we are strongly encouraging those who come in for practice at the center to please wear a mask. We will be running the air purifier and ventilation fans in the common area.
May the illumination of wisdom teachings shine through all obscurations of our mind, and may our practices be beneficial to all beings!
