Saturday Night Live Q & A Dialogue

Join us for an evening of dialogue and contemplation with two pioneers of contemporary Buddhism.

Questions can be submitted beforehand via the link provided in your registration confirmation email and during the live event through the Zoom “Q&A” function.

“The Buddha encouraged his followers to take the initiative not simply to take his teachings on trust, but to examine them as a goldsmith tests gold to check its real value. To do this it’s necessary to be skeptical, to question whether what is taught is appropriate and what its benefit may be.”
– HH the XIV Dalai Lama
