Join three of the West's most prominent Buddhist teachers—Jack Kornfield, Tara Brach, and Mark Epstein—for an exclusive weekend program, titled, The Gifts of Buddhist & Western Psychology. Western psychology and Eastern Buddhist psychology have become partners in one of the greatest of human quests—the exploration, understanding, healing, and awakening of the human heart and mind.
