Via Daily Dharma: The Open Heart
As a nonprofit organization, Tricycle depends on the generosity of individuals like you.
Awakening
to your own joy can be as simple as taking delight in a gorgeous
blooming flower, hearing the sound of your beloved’s voice, or noticing
the way your favorite song soothes your heart.

find its way into the Dharma Hall and be made integral to our everyday
practice.
