New Dhamma Study Group – Starting August 2, 2025

Dear Dhamma Friends,

To deepen our understanding of the Dhamma in a more structured and supportive way, we’re excited to launch a new Study Group under the guidance of Bhikkhu Santacitto.

πŸ—“ When: First Saturday of each month
πŸ•š Time: 11:00 AM – 1:00 PM
🍽 Followed by: Potluck lunch
🏑 Location: Please contact us at info.ibfc.toronto@gmail.com for the address!

Bhante will guide us through essential Dhamma topics starting from the foundations. These sessions will be interactive, and questions can be asked directly in the  Dhamma Space Group.

To keep the learning engaging and collaborative, each topic will be presented by a family or group, who will have the creative freedom to present it in their own style as long as within the topic that Bhante provided.

πŸ“š Our first topic will be: Kamma

It’s a good opportunity to learn Dhamma together as a family or team to strengthen our understanding and support one another on the path.

Let us learn and grow togetherβ€”for our own benefit.
Anumodana for your support and participation!
