Main Contact: Tomas Stavel
Notes and Events:
Diamond Way Buddhist Centers USA consists of 40 Buddhist centers and groups, which are a part of an international non-profit network of more than 500 meditation centers in the Karma Kagyu tradition of Tibetan Buddhism.

They are currently under the spiritual guidance of H.H. the 17th Gyalwa Karmapa, Trinlay Thaye Dorje, who now resides in India.
Diamond Way (Vajrayana - Skt.) is the crown jewel of the Buddhas teachings. Working from the absolute level it employs methods of total identification with enlightenment for the quickest possible results. Since 1972, Lama Ole Nydahl has been been working to develop a modern approach to the Buddhas teachings. Diamond Way Buddhist Centers USA is the culmination of that effort. Modern western education, stressing self-reliance and independent thought, has proven to be an excellent basis for realizing ones mind. Through such capable groups the Buddhas most effective teachings are being passed on to the most idealistic and independent people around the world

Together, we learn and share mindfulness and meditative techniques that help us generate awareness, presence, and compassion. We also support and encourage one another as we encounter challenges to our peace of mind. Our sessions emphasize practical application and integration of Buddhist principals into our daily routines.
Meetings are freely offered. There are no dues or fees; however, donations for supplies and expenses are graciously accepted, though never expected.
Currently, we meet every Thursday night from 7-8:30.

Spiritual Director: Reverend Upananda T Dedunupitiye Email
Notes and Events:
The Habitat of Buddha Yoga, Inc (HBY) adheres to the Buddha’s teaching that one does not have to be initiated or baptized as a Buddhist in order to be a Buddhist. While one adheres to one’s religious/spiritual upbringing one has acquired since birth, one must be able to respect all the religions; one can be a Buddhist, as one embark upon and continue a life-long process of self-transformation through Buddha Yoga (=mental cultivation) which is specifically known as “Vipassana” (Insight) meditation only found in the Buddha’s Teaching. Just as different rivers flowing from different directions become one on emptying themselves into the ocean, people from different religio-cultural backgrounds become one, as they “sit together” for self-transformation, whose ultimate step is “Absolute Awakening” (Nirvana). Unless Awakening of the moment is achieved in daily life, Nirvana will only be a dream or fantasy. The HBY welcomes people from all walks of life and different religio-cultural backgrounds to congregate together and journey into the mind wherein lays the potential of Nirvana, or Buddha Nature. The Buddha Nature remains hindered by fermentations gradually built up, as life is lived in a stressful and disharmonious way. Buddha’s Teaching is not only for Buddhists but also for all beings. The HBY wishes you a life full of wellness, happiness and peace.
