Office Hours

Online Q&A with the Teachers
It’s easy to feel bliss and clarity during retreat, but how do you maintain it when you’re back home? Better yet, how can you deepen and strengthen your spiritual practice amidst day-to-day demands?

Why Office Hours?

The Benefits of Regular Contact

When you’re swept up in the busyness of career, family and daily pressures, Office Hours is an anchor to universal teachings and supportive community. Every second Sunday, you have an opportunity to join our global network for an online Q&A session with Dharma Teachers Doug Duncan and Catherine Pawasarat.

Coming together in question and reflection is a precious opportunity for deepened compassion and wisdom. You may discover that others share the same question as you, or better yet, learn the answers to questions you even never thought to ask. This ‘triple gem’ of Buddha, Dharma and Sangha is a tangible refuge to strengthen your awakening journey.

Not sure what to expect? You are welcome to attend as an observer and are not required to ask a question. Although participants are encouraged to bring questions, it is not mandatory.

Video recordings are available for those who cannot attend live.

Office Hours is open to all experience levels.
