What we're about

This is the New York City sangha of Dharma Ocean--a non-profit foundation headed by the noted practitioner and scholar, Dr. Reggie Ray. Dharma Ocean is dedicated to the practice, study and preservation of the teachings of Chögyam Trungpa Rinpoche and the practice lineage he embodied. This sangha gathers to practice bodywork and meditation as presented by Dr. Ray, who was one of Trungpa Rinpoche's first students in North America. More information about Dharma Ocean can be found at www.dharmaocean.org.

The New York City sangha is led by senior teachers Tina LaGreca and Marty Enright.

Tina LaGreca

Teacher and Meditation Instructor

Co-Director DONY

Tina has pursued an interest in many wisdom traditions, especially Buddhist psychology and thought, but it wasn't until she met Dr. Reggie Ray in 2005, and was introduced to the somatic meditation that he teaches, that she found a path which unlocks the way to the unfolding of our fullest humanity. Tina was formerly a high school teacher, an actor/singer and is now a psychotherapist in private practice in New York City, providing psychotherapy to individuals, couples and groups. She is also the co-director of Dharma Ocean of New York and is a teacher and certified meditation instructor in the Dharma Ocean Buddhist lineage.

In his relationships with students, Marty aspires to create a container in which each individual student’s journey is respected, fostered and allowed to flourish.

Somatic Meditation: The Gateway to Compassion and Wisdom

Nalandabodhi New York Use buzzer 4 for entry

These two hours are dedicated to practice as taught by Reggie Ray in the lineage of Chogyam Trungpa Rinpoche and offer an opportunity for group practice, which can deepen our meditation. The time will be spent in guided body work, sitting meditation and/or walking meditation. Sometimes there will be a brief dharma talk followed by questions and discussion or the opportunity to join for an informal discussion over lunch. Don't worry if you don't have experience. All are welcome! For more information about Dharma Ocean teachings visit www.DharmaOcean.org. We have a suggested donation of $10 to $20 to support the space and the teachings. No one will ever be turned away for lack of funds. ------- The nearest subway is Fulton Street (A, C, J, Z, 2, 3 lines). Be sure to double-check MTA, as schedules can shift on Sundays.
