Wrap-up class for EBMC’s Core Buddhist Curriculum Jan-May 2023

with Mushim Patricia Ikeda

Wednesday May 24th

6:30 – 8:30PM PST (Time Zone Converter) Closed Captioning Provided

For those who have taken either some or all of EBMC’s 7-Month “Buddhist Core Teachings” in Jan – May 2023, this is a wrap-up class where you can bring your “biggest” Buddhist practice questions, meet Dharma companions on the path, and rejoice in the merit that you have generated!

Please note: The focus of this Class is on what you are doing to deepen your spiritual practice and to transform your life through these wisdom teachings.

Mushim Patricia Ikeda is a socially-engaged Buddhist teacher, community activist, diversity, equity and inclusion consultant, parent and author based in Oakland, California. She has a background in both monastic and lay Buddhist practice. At EBMC, Mushim is also guiding teacher of the award-winning yearlong Practice in Transformative Action (PiTA) program, which provides secular mindfulness training for justice activists. Mushim is the recipient of a Global Diversity Leadership award; an honorary doctor of sacred theology degree from the Starr King School of Ministry; and was named one of Colorlines’s 20 transformative racial justice leaders in 2018.
