About us
Meet like-minded people interested in meditation near you! Learn how to meditate or deepen your current meditation practice. A trademark of the meditations we emphasize is the ease in which they can be used both “on the cushion” and in our daily lives.
Each meeting will include practical meditation, and a talk on how to reduce stress and other problems encountered in daily life and how to increase mental and physical well-being. There will also be plenty of time to discuss the ideas presented. Although the meditations and talks are based on Kadampa Buddhist philosophy, you don't need to be a Buddhist to enjoy this group or benefit from our meditations.
Kadampa Buddhism stresses a spiritual path of individual transformation and to look within ourselves for the inner peace and happiness we seek. Everyone is welcome!
Classes meet at the Oasis Institute, with typical group sizes ranging from 7 to 15 participants.

Developing a Courageous Heart
Oasis Institute, 4918 Homberg Drive, Hamburg Court, Knoxville, TN, USDeveloping a Courageous Heart with Modern Buddhism Teacher Jill Cagney
We all share the same wish: to be happy all the time. But do we really understand what happiness is, where it comes from and why it matters? In this series we will answer these questions, explore methods for increasing our own happiness, and discover the power of wishing for the happiness of others.When we think of courage, we usually think of strength and fearlessness in confronting danger and pain. What if courage is actually keeping an open heart at the times when we feel like we should be closing it? In this series we will be looking at Buddha’s teachings on compassion, and how to develop the courage to keep an open compassionate heart.
