The Dharma of the Light
Event description
with Isa Gucciardi
Thursday, December 12, 7 – 8:30 pm
As we approach the winter festivals of light at the solstice, we will come together to meditate on some of the expressions of light in Buddhism including the clear light, ground luminosity, and Buddha nature. Isa will also offer teachings on the relationship between samsara and clear light on a collective level and the relationship between Buddha nature and karmic patterns on the personal level.
