Lama Katen led a very successful weekend course in July entitled 'The Meaning of Dharma'.  Now this second course will focus on what it really means to be a Buddhist.

All participants must register for this course in advance and everyone must attend all sessions.
  
Details of the schedule will be posted on noticeboards in Samye Ling closer to the time.

There is no fee for this course although donations are welcome. Your offering will help with the Monastery's considerable running costs, as well as the expenses incurred in inviting teachers.  Donations may be made in the Reception Office.
