Foundation 1: Wisdom
Through study and careful attention we develop wisdom of how things are, including the nature of impermanence, contentment, and identity
Foundation 2: Contemplation
An important part of the practice includes meditation techniques for developing calm, concentration, self-understanding, presence, self-compassion, and loving kindness
Foundation 3: Community
We live together and need each other; we gather together to support each other, to learn from each other, to celebrate our successes, and console each others grief
American Secular Buddhism
Our mission is to support the use of study, mindfulness, and sharing to explore how our lives can be changed for the better by:
- an understanding of what brings contentment and what does not
- an affirmation of our inherent wisdom and goodness
- an appreciation of the interrelationship between wisdom, contemplation, and interdependence
