“Of paths, the Path of Eight Constituents is the noblest;
Of the teachings, the absence of craving (i.e. Nibbana) is the noblest;
Of the two-legged beings, the All-Seeing Buddha is the noblest.”
~Dhammapada verse 273

Why are we here?
Why can’t we let go?
How do we create karma?
Why do we suffer and how can we alleviate suffering and create happiness in our lives?
The Buddha explained the causes and effects of all the above in his teachings of the 12 links of dependent origination – the chain of causes that lead to rebirth.
We look forward to your loving presence.
