Connection, Reflection, and Ritual: A New Year's Eve Celebration
Join us in community to ring in the new year! On this special evening, we pause to honor the past, celebrate the gift of the present, and courageously set our heart’s intentions for the year ahead. Together we’ll dwell in the reassurance of 2,600+ years of Buddhist lineage as we gather to release what no longer serves, bow to what is beautiful in each of us, and collectively move forward into the promises and challenges of the future.

Finding Home in Sangha
Registration Opens - May 14. This retreat invites folks of the Asian diaspora into a kinship of experience, holding the paradox of identity and history in balance with the Buddha’s ultimate pointing toward truth and liberation. Held in the wisdom and compassion of the Dharma, the community can move toward a collective healing, appreciating its connectedness and difference. Rather than seeking the perfect external conditions, we’ll support each other in finding solace, comfort, and the joy that can be sourced from our relationship to experience.
