Meditation Instruction & Dharma Study

Brief meditation instruction is provided upon request at our weekly gatherings. We recommend that everyone get in-depth meditation instruction and training.  Meditation instruction can be found many places in the city, including our location.

Dharma study is a life-long process.  We do not provide dharma teaching at QD, except for occasional special events. We encourage everyone to pursue dharma teachings from the many sources available in NYC and the world.
