All that we are is the result of what we have thought. If a man speaks or acts with an evil thought, pain follows him. If a man speaks or acts with a pure thought, happiness follows him, like a shadow that never leaves him.

Dharma is the nature of reality regarded as a universal truth taught by the Buddha.

In support of our mission statement the Dharma Institute was formed in the Autumn of 2023 and is a location where individuals may develop, nurture, and strengthen their Dharma and mindfulness and meditation practice. In turn, students are able to foster compassion, empathy, and well-being towards themselves and others so that a better world may be realized for all living beings.

Courses are offered in both a synchronous and asynchronous online format with readily available instructor support.
