On November 1st, the veil thins… and the Dharma sings! Join us for a Halloween‑themed fall FUNdraiser full of song, silliness, and Dharma delight. After our usual Sunday Morning Shamatha, we’ll take a short break and then dive straight into community karaoke, followed by a seasonal potluck to keep the party going.

In this retreat we will explore practices that observe how our bodies seem to hold emotions and what happens in the body when emotions arise. Our purpose will be to simply allow experience rather than to change, fix, or explain anything. By becoming aware of what is there, we can befriend it in a non-conceptual way.

Even in a sangha setting where people are trying to live in harmony, conflicts arise and beg to be addressed. KCC has outlined conflict resolution procedures to help people work towards resolution. If – for whatever reason – conflict still cannot be resolved, KCC’s Harmony Council members can help facilitate resolution.

Thank you to everyone who came out to SCOL this past weekend to celebrate its 25th anniversary, and special thanks to our dedicated SCOL staff and the many hands that helped make it happen! For those who presented at tables, supported parking, prepared the space, cooked, and helped with cleanup, the event would not have been possible without your support.

We are delighted to announce that pre-orders are now open for KCC’s Commemorative 50th Anniversary calendar, featuring masterful thangka art from our very own Sanje Elliott. This calendar was lovingly designed and produced as an offering to KCC and its mission by our dear friends from Amber Lotus Publishing.
KCC’s regular meditations are open to all members of the public, and in most cases the teacher will offer basic instructions before meditation.
