I particularly like the (suspiciously Burris-sounding) snicker-whisper at the end when Geshe la gives the goofy wave.

Who We Are, What We Do, and Where We Do It

We are a diverse group of individuals of all ages from all backgrounds who simply have an interest in what Geshe Dorjee and Mepham have to teach us. We meet every Sunday at Dramis Hardwood Floors (see directions below) at 11:00 a.m. for meditation, instruction, and discussion. Typically, we are finished betweeen 12:30 and 1:00 p.m. Some of us are Buddhists, some of us are not, and all are welcome. You may bring a cushion if you have one, but we provide cushions for those who do not.

What We're Reading / What We've Read

Geshe Sonam Rinchen: The Three Principal Aspects of the Path
The book we're currently reading in the Sunday meditation class (as of January '09), and the fourth one we've done with Geshe la.
Santideva: A Guide to the Bodhisattva Way of Life
The edition we're using for the weekly reading group (not the Sunday meditation group) that meets on Wednesday nights at Geshe's house . . .
The Dalai Lama: The Meaning of Life
The book that we read during 2008 (the third one with Geshe la), THE MEANING OF LIFE, by His Holiness the Dalai Lama, which addresses the 12 links of dependent origination and other issues.
Ven Lobsang Gyatso: The Four Noble Truths
The first book we read together, and a detailed--at times, overly detailed--treatment of the founding platform of all Buddhist philosophy and practice.
The Dalai Lama: Stages of Meditation
The second book we read with Geshe la. It's actually the second part of a three-part work by Kamalashila, an Indian monk and scholar from the 8th century. The Dalai Lama has supplied copious commentary to Kamalashila's translated text.
