Dear Sangha Community,

In order to make our practices more accessible to the majority of sangha members, and out of an abundance of caution and concern for everyone's safety during the upcoming wintery months, Tashi Choling classes and pujas will be held in town during the months of December and January this year. We will also close the Vajrasattva Statue Garden to visitors during the same months.

Please see the schedule in the boxes below for times and locations of town classes and pujas.

We encourage everyone to practice in town, stay warm, and avoid the icy roads between Ashland and the Colestin Valley during these winter months.
