About Me

We meet every Thursday night from 6 - 8pm. We are a group for anyone who has been practicing or is just curious about the Buddha, dharma, meditation, etc. Dharma Punx groups are an inspiration from Noah Levine and his books DHARMA PUNX and AGAINST THE STREAM. We don't care if you have been a Buddhist practitioner for years or if you just happened to stumble into this. You don't have to be anything at all. We don't have all the answers and are not all that interested in debating theology. For more information you can email me at [email protected]
