On the third Thursday of each month at 7:00p.m. EDT, the entire Open Heart Project community gathers together to hear a talk from a special guest teacher, sit meditation together, and share questions, stories, and experiences. Each talk will focus on applying the dharma to real life. This 75-90 minute gathering is free and open to all. Just click this link at that time. This event is free to everyone!
