Food for Thought brings to your neighborhood a more casual and relaxing approach to learning practical yet inspiring methods for a happy life as taught by Buddha...methods that will solve our daily problems, help develop peace of mind under any circumstances, show how to keep a happy heart in all relationships good or bad, and offer a special wisdom that can transform every experience into a rich spiritual path. In the same way that Buddha taught each individual according to their personal inclination and capacity, Food for Thought is intended to reach out and offer something for everyone, at any level of interest. Each week will explore various topics depending on your interests, such as:
Join American Buddhist monk and Resident Teacher of Rameshori Buddhist Center Gen Mondrub for some informal meditation, meaningful discussion, and entertaining question and answer time. Maybe you can ask something you've always wanted to know about Buddhism but were afraid to go through the doors of a Buddhist Center to ask. Food for Thought is a light, clean, and most rewarding evening of fun. Most nights conclude with some social time to meet like-minded people...with food for the body, too!
