How to Get Started
Our weekly classes are a great place to start. A typical class will include teachings, two guided meditations and a question & answer session.
Taught by qualified Western teachers, the meditation classes are very easy to understand and apply to our daily lives. The classes are suitable for both beginners and more advanced meditation practitioners, and emphasize how to meditate and practice in our NY urban environment.
Meditation is a simple yet profound method to improve the quality of our lives and develop inner peace. Through following very simple, practical instructions we can learn to let go of the causes of our pain and dissatisfaction and to gain the inner peace and clarity we seek. We offer a wide range of classes from basic introductions to Buddhist meditation, applying Buddha’s teachings to daily life issues such as anger and improving relationships, to comprehensive study programs of Buddhist view, meditation and action. Everyone is welcome.

It aims to use Buddhist teachings and meditation practice for practical and useful purposes so that we can build One World Community and to realize oneness of life based on the Buddhist view of interdependency and the interconnectedness of all.
The temple offers Sunday Dharma service, weekday group meditation, retreats, and study groups. All nationalities, cultures, ages and spiritual backgrounds are welcome to our Temple in the spirit of open community.
