Dear Friends,

We’re happy to invite you to a weekend program at our Buddhist Center in Minneapolis. There will be guided and individual meditation sessions, lectures, time for walks, and space for your questions.

We will be hosting Manfred Maier as our guest teacher—a long-time student of Lama Ole Nydahl who lives at the Diamond Way Buddhist Center in Villingen-Schwenningen, Germany, and works as a music teacher. Manfred and his wife, Beate, regularly travel and teach at Buddhist centers across Europe and beyond.

Come for the full weekend or stop by for a lecture or two.
