Please note: Lama Yeshe will give an introduction to the Ngondro Practices after Calm Abiding Meditation on Thursday, October 15th.
This meditation is common to many traditions of Buddhism. In this practice, we rest our attention on a simple meditative support, such as the breath. Instead of following thoughts and emotions as we usually do, we release them and maintain our connection to the support.

Saturday, November 21st
10:00 am - noon & 2:00 - 4:00 pm
Hybrid Event
In the current time, there is difficulty and challenge everywhere: Wars, famines, refugees, economic peril, corruption, and currently, tremendous political mistrust between people. Resources dwindle, and we feel overwhelmed by the needs of all. We truly want to help, but how?
Save the dates…devon & nico hase return to teach at KSC!
Saturday & Sunday, December 12th - 13th
10:00 am – noon & 2:00 – 4:00 pm
Hybrid Event
What does it actually mean to dissolve into a form made of light and fire — and why would that liberate anyone? In this in-person teaching, nico and devon hase explore the heart of yidam practice: not as ritual technique, but as a direct encounter with the nature of mind.
Registration Coming!
