Refuge Workshop: True Protection, Finding Refuge

True Protection - Finding Refuge

All living beings seek refuge. Where can we find protection from our daily problems as well as our deep seated confusion and fears?

Come and learn about Buddhist refuge in the Three Jewels: Buddha, Dharma, and Sangha - where true protection can be found.  Buddha guides us along the spiritual path to enlightenment. Dharma, our experience of Buddha’s teachings, protects us from problems and suffering. Sangha, our teachers and spiritual friends, inspire us and help us along the path to inner peace.

After the talk, there will be an opportunity to take part in a special ceremony for receiving or renewing refuge vows.  By taking these vows we dedicate ourselves to finding happiness from within by relying upon the Three Jewels.

For those who would like to deepen their experience of refuge, a Refuge Retreat follows, with daily sessions from Saturday afternoon through Friday evening, March 30.
