2026 - The Truth of Buddhist Recovery - Barre Center for Buddhist Studies

March 2, 2026

Join Kevin Griffin and Vimalasara the first four Mondays in March for a transformative series. We'll explore core Buddhist teachings, including the Four Noble Truths, the Four Heavenly Messengers, and the Three Refuges. We will draw on these classical Buddhist teachings in our own lives to find practical wisdom and support for exploring a path to overcoming addiction and building a foundation for recovery.

Program Format: Our sessions together will include guided meditations, Dharma talks, Q&A, and some small group discussions.

Recommended Readings: Eight Step Recovery, by Vimalasara and Sought Through Meditation, by Kevin Griffin
