Dear Dharma Friends,
Our practices this week are on the regular schedule. Wednesday evening yidam practice is Medicine Buddha, Thursday evening will be Tea Break, Saturday morning will be Vajrasattva practice, and our Sunday practice will be Achi Chokyi Drolma.
Please note: the CDC has listed our community transmission level as low, and masks are optional for our in person practices at the center. We do ask that only fully vaccinated people come in to the center. We will be running the air purifier in the common area. If you are not feeling well or have had a recent exposure to Covid, please ensure that you are negative with a home test before coming in or join us online.
May the illumination of wisdom teachings shine through all obscurations of our mind, and may our practices be beneficial to all beings!
