The teachings of 
​the Buddha are here for you

Timeless Wisdom for Your Life Today

With the help of the monks, you will learn ancient Buddhist wisdom that you can apply to your life today. Because although the Buddha lived and taught in India 2,500 years ago, the truths of life he discovered then are still true today. We still have greed. We still have hatred. We still have delusion. And the techniques he taught to overcome these problems still work. And when our mind is free from these problems, all that's left is peace and happiness.

We are very lucky to be living in a time when the original, ancient teachings of the Buddha are still available to us. The Buddha explained that there are four steps we need to follow in order to achieve the goal of true happiness:
  1. We need to associate with good people who know the teachings of the Buddha and who are trying to follow them.
  2. We need to listen carefully to those teachings.
  3. We need to reflect wisely on those teachings and apply them to our lives.
  4. And finally we need to put those teachings into practice and lead our life according to their instructions. ​(SN 55:5)
