How appropriate this is as we look back upon all the lives of members, families, and friends who have contributed in so many ways to maintain our temple as a beacon of Wisdom and Compasssion for the greater community.

BUDDHISM CLASSES
A SPIRITUAL PATH FOR TODAY
THE LIFE OF SHAKYAMUNI BUDDHA

The Buddhist Temple of Alameda will offer spring classes on Buddhism this April on . We will utilize the book, “The Teaching of Buddha” published by Bukkyo Dendo Kyokai to explore the life and teachings of Shakyamuni Buddha. We will also provide supplemental notes. The Buddha’s experience of awakening and enlightenment can assist us to cultivate our own foundation of stability and strength to face the demands of our difficult lives in the modern world today.
