SBT - Community

10-Week Meditation Program Teaching. This 10-week SBT meditation program is completely free and open to all, from beginners to the advanced. Meditation is a technique that develops clarity, wisdom, objectivity, and mental/emotional stability. It’s a method of self-inquiry and self-discovery that is both developmental and revelatory. A practice aimed at becoming more aware and present in our daily lives, through which we gain insight and understanding into ourselves, others, and our environment. Venerable Tenzin Tarpa is the founder and director of SBT – The Secular Buddhist Tradition. A fully ordained Buddhist monk and student of The Dalai Lama, Venerable Tarpa is a teacher, author, and philosopher with nearly three decades in Buddhist studies, including a decade in Buddhist monasteries in India. SBT – the Secular Buddhist Tradition, is an international spiritual community dedicated to Secular Buddhism and the timeless wisdom of the Buddha. SBT presents the Buddha’s teachings as neither a religion nor exotic belief system, sharing a practical presentation focused on the positive life-affirming message of the Buddha, while emphasizing and prioritizing those aspects that we deem most credible, illuminating, and effective. The aim of SBT is to inform and guide without sharing presumptions of what to believe.
