In the context of the Buddha’s teachings, equanimity is a highly valued quality, one that’s recognized as both foundational to the path to freedom, and the highest expression of it.

In keeping with Buddhist tradition, the teachings are offered on a donation basis which means the teachers are not paid to offer these classes. Instead, they rely on the generosity of the participants to help them continue to share their teachings with others, and there will be an opportunity at the end of each class to offer donations to support their ongoing teaching.
