Aloha Sangha

Be kind to yourself as you proceed along this journey. This kindness, in itself, is a means of awakening the spark of love within you and helping others to discover that spark within themselves.

Tsoknyi Rinpoche

We practice insight meditation grounded in the teachings of Early Buddhsim. We would love to share these remarkable practices with you.

The world today desperately needs a path of practical wisdom. To lead more fulfilling lives, we need to find deeper meaning and ease, what the ancient Greeks called eudaimonia.

This website offers personal insights into the Early Buddhist teachings as a source of practical wisdom and happiness anyone can follow.

A mind unruffled by the vagaries of fortune, from sorrow freed, from disturbing emotions cleansed, from fear liberated, this is the greatest blessing.

~The Buddha (Mangala Sutta)

When you find your place where you actually are, practice occurs. When you find your way at this moment, practice occurs. Here is the place. Here the way unfolds.

Dogen, 1200 – 1253, Genjōkōan: Actualizaing the Fundamental Point

We can always imagine more perfect conditions. But it's not our task to create ideals, but to learn from the world as it is. For the awakening of the heart, conditions are always good enough.
