Welcome to our new website! For those of you familiar with our previous site, all of the teachings and resources that were on our site before have been converted to this new format. If you are new to our site, we hope you will enjoy exploring what our site has to offer.
Read Teachings Online
The new website design is clear, spacious and easy to navigate. We hope you find reading teachings online easy on the eyes. You can also create a PDF or generate a printer friendly version of any teaching by using the links at the top of each page.
All teachings and articles have been assigned to a category, a listing of which you can access from the Teachings menu above. The category represents the main topic addressed in the teaching.
Additionally, teachings are assigned tags, which indicate that a topic is discussed somewhere within the article, although it is not the main topic. Tags are displayed on the right-hand side of each teaching page; click on any tag to see a list of teachings which also have that tag.
Listen to Teachings Online
All of our audio recordings have also been assigned categories and tags; pull down the Audio menu above to see our offerings. Teachings that have associated audio will have “Listen Online” and “Download” links near the upper-right of the page. Clicking on the “Listen Online” link will launch a new audio player which is designed to run on any machine.
