The Sutras are threads (the literal meaning of the word ‘sutra’) of the Buddha’s teachings that were recorded and authenticated by his 500 disciples after his final Nirvana. In Sutra Study, we read the words of the Buddha, the enlightened one, and apply his teachings to the circumstances of our lives. We read a sutra, sit with the words and examine them ourselves. This is the most direct and intimate way to learn about Buddhism, rather than going through the interpretations of second-hand sources.

We practice sitting meditation for 10 minutes, from 7:00-7:10pm and start the Sutra Study right after. A link to the monthly reading will be posted below and on our calendar. 

We encourage attendees to come prepared to share their understandings, realizations and/or questions of the assigned sutra passage and how it applies to their daily practices and lives.

The sutra study is free and all are welcome to attend. No prior Buddhist knowledge or experience is necessary.
