Buddhism 101 Course Starts on January 25th

Awareness, Balance, and Compassion: Registrations ends soon.

The New England Institute for Buddhist Studies will be offering its Buddhism 101 Course, starting January 25, 2015 in Middletown, CT. This course will be geared to those curious about Buddhism and those practitioners who wish to have a structured and guided study of the religion. This course will meet once a month for six months, starting on January 25, 2015.


Students will learn about the Buddhist path from the ground up. Who was the Buddha and his disciples, and the Eightfold Path? What is meditation? How do can you meditate? What are the Buddha’s teachings for ordinary working people?


Our Buddhism Course 101 is offered to all those interested in surveying the Buddha’s life and teachings, and how they are applied to 21st century American life. Since 2004, this course has been the New England Institute of Buddhist Studies’ most popular and comprehensive course, and considered the number one Buddhist course in Connecticut.
