Ratnasambhava’s Creative Force and the Four Gifts
Sunday, June 28th, 2026
10 am - 1 pm
In person at B-1 Yoga Studio
39 Mount Airy Village Road
Lambertville, NJ 08530
Event Description:
Join us for an in-person practice day in New Jersey, where we will enjoy time together in community with meditation, dharma teaching, and fellowship.
The theme of our gathering will center on the creative energy inspired by Ratnasambhava. Painters, writers, and musicians will be evoked as examples of some ways that this creative expression touches and heals our world.
Time permitting, we may also explore the global theme of the Four Gifts of loving-kindness, compassion, sympathetic joy, and equanimity. These practices, also known as the Bramaviharas, are central to the Buddhist worldview that emphasizes interdependence and unconditional goodwill to all beings.
