At our retreat center (Wonderwell) we offered training in Tibetan Buddhism through 1) Buddhist meditation retreats that ranged from one weekend to one month, 2) a weekly meeting of meditation, practice, and Buddhist study, 3) "Dharma Sunday" - a monthly all day program of meditation, practice, and Buddhist study, and These were all overseen by "Lamas" (teachers/ministers) trained in the Tibetan Buddhist tradition. Note the Wonderwell staff switched our events from onsite to online in 2020 due to the pandemic.
In Cambridge MA we pay for the use of a local church building for a weekly meeting of meditation, practice, and Buddhist study. Note this was moved from onsite to online because of the pandemic
We offered the Margha Program - a formal, multi-year instructional program in Buddhist meditation with over 100 students. It is taught by Lama Willa Baker, Lama Elizabeth Monson, and many experienced Buddhist practitioner volunteers. These meetings were moved online in 2020 because of the pandemic.
