It is strongly recommended that those who are interested in the Refuge Ceremony take the following courses that will also be announced soon
The Significance of Refuge: April 17th – 7:30 pm PT on Zoom
When you decide that Tibetan Buddhism is your spiritual path, it is time to take Refuge. We strongly recommend that you take this class before taking the Refuge ceremony. In this class, you will learn the true meaning of Refuge and the Three Jewels. The Refuge Ceremony will be explained so you can understand the meaning and relevance of the ceremony to you.

Life After Refuge: May 17th – 7:30 pm PT on Zoom
What do you do once you have taken refuge? To help with questions like these, we will be offering a regularly scheduled “Life After Refuge” discussion group. The aim is to hold informal discussions on beginning your new spiritual path. This will be scheduled during the week following a Refuge ceremony.
