About us
Anyone interested in starting or furthering their mindfulness/meditation practice.
While this tradition is Buddhist, you do not need to be a Buddhist to join nor will anyone try to 'convert' you. The teachings are practical and relevant to anyone seeking to bring more mindfulness into their lives.
Most of the events listed are at the SF Dharma Collective - https://sfdharmacollective.org/. Most classes are offered in our beautiful space, 2929 24th Street in the Mission of San Francisco. Most classes are also accessible via Zoom.
We are a community-run meditation center seeking to make meditation accessible to everyone. We wish to create and sustain communities of healthy, accountable, wise and compassionate people from every walk of life. We welcome people from all racial, economic, sexual, social, political and religious backgrounds and believe that the path of awakening is attainable by all and should be available to all.
All are events are freely available to all, and we ask for donations as you are able to sustain our teachers and our operational costs. https://sfdharmacollective.org/donate

Buddhism in Translation
·OnlineOnlineWhat is Buddhism, and why does it look so different in different places? How did the teachings of Shakyamuni Buddha travel across the world and evolve within various cultures? How are they evolving today, here and now?
MC Owens brings together wisdom from Buddhist Sutras, historical perspectives from across Buddhist traditions, and practical experiences of life, and sheds light on these and other questions.
In this weekly class, we will examine key Buddhist ideas and practices and explore major Buddhist schools and their diverse expressions. Through discussion and close reading, we will consider what it means to translate not only texts, but traditions, grappling with the challenge of making sense of the many different Buddhisms that exist today.
Bring your questions and curiosity to this open discussion of Buddhism in America (and beyond!) and its relevance to your everyday life.
This class is open to all!
MC Owens is a Buddhist teacher, translator, and author who uses a sutra-based curriculum that draws from a variety of traditions to teach the history, philosophy, and practice of Buddhism. He teaches regularly for the San Francisco Dharma Collective and he also runs Lotus Underground – a repository of his teaching activities, audio recordings, and writings.

Pragmatic Dharma Club
2929 24th St, San Francisco, CA, USwith Tucker Peck
Class meets in person at 2929 24th Street
This weekly meetup focuses on diverse techniques of meditation, as well as the interplay between meditation and psychology. While we're not attached to any particular technique, many of the group members practice based on modern meditation manuals like The Mind Illuminated, Right Concentration, Seeing That Frees, or Mastering the Core Teachings of the Buddha.The SF Pragmatic Dharma Club has what we like to call Five Acts Plus a Finale. We'll begin with members introducing themselves, followed by a 40-minute guided meditation. After the meditation, there will be break-out groups of 3-4 people, where attendees get to know one another. The last part of the evening is a group Q&A session with the teacher. The class ends at 9, where most nights everyone is invited to join for late dinner at a Mexican restaurant down the street.
Dr. Tucker Peck is a clinical psychologist and longtime teacher of dharma classes and residential retreats.
Suggested donation $15 - $30.
