Have you been meditating, attending classes or reading books on Buddhism? Are you interested in the philosophy presented by the Buddha? Buddhist philosophy can help many people in their daily life, even if they don’t identify as “Buddhist”. But what does it mean to be Buddhist? Taking Refuge in the Buddha, Dharma and Sangha is one of the ways to identify with being a buddhist. Join Geshe Tsultrim for this in depth series about what taking refuge means.
This class is perfect for anyone who is interested in taking refuge vows, or just interested in Buddhism in general.
