Foundation Program

The Foundation Program (FP) is a structured program designed for practitioners who wish to deepen their Dharma study and meditation practice. Through listening, contemplating, and engaging in meditations and group discussions, foundation program students can increase their wisdom, Dharma experience and develop meaningful spiritual relationships. We go deeper than in drop-in General Program classes because each class can build upon the one before it, presupposing knowledge, and shifting the responsibility of learning from the teacher to the student. And then we start to change. It offers the opportunity to study six of Geshe Kelsang’s books in great depth. The books are commentaries to Je Tsongkhapa’s writings and contain the very essence of Buddha’s teachings.
