Join us as we explore the rich repository of Buddhist Sutras, Pali Canon, Chinese Ta-ts’ang-ching, and Tibetan Kangyur every first Sunday of the month after the Sunday Service. Sūtra (Pali. sutta) means ‘something that was heard from someone else’ and usually connotes ‘a discourse’.

In this chapter of the Sūtra, Vimalakīrti demonstrates teachings that defy conceptual limits—rooms that contain multitudes, stillness amid activity, and freedom within form—showing liberation that is not separate from everyday life.

Facilitators: Lama Matthew Rice (Lobpön Palden Gocha) and Daniel Scharpenburg
