The Six Steps to Becoming a Bodhisattva - the activist seeking freedom and happiness for all.
When times get tough, when the world is confusing, these six practices will give you direction, clarity and motivation for becoming a Bodhisattva in the world.
The Six Paramitas are the Buddhist map for anyone who wants to bring their dharma studies alive.
We will explore these practices of generosity, patience, discipline, whole-hearted enthusiasm, meditation and prajna/wisdom as a way to cultivate our own sanity, kindness and groundedness. This is a preparation for extending that wakeful goodness throughout all of our relationships.
Each session will include a dharma lesson, meditation practice, break out group discussions and Q & A. Sometimes there might be some contemplative writing exercises, light stretching and breathing practice.
Practical Stuff :
We'll send the recording out to everyone booked on 1-3 days after each session. The recordings will remain available for two months after the course finishes.

About Cyndi :
Cyndi Lee began teaching meditation 30 years ago with the blessing of her root guru, the great Tibetan master, Gelek Rimpoche. In 2018 she was ordained as a Buddhist Chaplain, under the guidance of Roshi Joan Halifax of Upaya Zen Center.
Cyndi is also the first female Western yoga teacher to fully integrate yoga asana and Tibetan Buddhism in her practice and teaching. From 1998-2012, she founded and ran the renowned OM yoga Center, a yoga studio and dharma center. One of the most influential teachers in the U.S. Cyndi has trained thousands of meditators and yogis worldwide.
OM yoga Center was the first NYC studio to offer Buddhist meditation classes. Cyndi’s favorite student was her dad, Allan Lee, who took meditation training at the age of 75.
Cyndi is the author of five books including the classic yoga text: Yoga Body Buddha Mind. Other books are the The New York Times critically acclaimed May I Be Happy: A Memoir of Love, Yoga, and Changing My Mind and OM yoga: A Guide to Daily Practice.
Cyndi is regular contributor to Yoga Journal, Lion’s Roar, Real Simple, and has written for Yoga International, Tricycle, and Natural Health. Recent articles include “My Slow Fashion Practice is Yoga, Too” (YJ), and “The Practice of Self-Caring” (LR).
Cyndi has found that teaching meditation online is wonderful! It turns out that it is completely possible to experience genuine connection and community this way, and we get to people we might never meet any other way.
