Regular Meeting Time: Mondays, 7-9:30 pm with Angie Kane
The Foundation Program (FP) provides a systematic presentation of particular subjects of Mahayana Buddhism to enable practitioners to deepen their knowledge and experience of Buddhism. The Program comprises five subjects based on Buddha's Sutra teachings and the corresponding commentaries by Geshe Kelsang Gyatso.
Our present understanding and experience of Dharma is quite superficial. There is a big gap between our mind and Dharma and we cannot apply Dharma in our daily lives. Why is this? It is because we are not studying systematically, according to a specially designed program. If we just pick at Dharma randomly we shall never gain deep and stable experience. For this reason the spiritual programs offered in New Kadampa Tradition Centers are very important. —Geshe Kelsang Gyatso
