Programs in Asheville and Online

 

All in-person programs in Asheville listed below take place at Urban Dharma, 697C Haywood Road, Asheville NC 28806. Masks are required in indoor spaces.


 

SUNDAYS AT 7:30PM

Integrated Dharma offers teaching and tools from a variety of Buddhist traditions, as well as psychological and embodiment practices, to support a full span freedom– relief from suffering, personal flourishing, and the means to translate that into a heart-centered response to the joys and challenges of our world.

These gatherings will begin with sangha building over tea, continue with a part guided, part silent meditation, and conclude with a talk and discussion on Buddhist practice. Hosted by Jogen Salzberg, with guest teaching from other local and traveling Southern Dharma teachers.

David McKay entered a Zen Buddhist monastery at the age of twenty-nine and spent the next eighteen years training there in silence. Over time he became a skilled facilitator and counselor, offering retreats and workshops at the monastery and across the country. David left the monastery in the fall of 2014 to further explore life and practice back in the world. He has since found his home in the Appalachian mountains, where he supports awareness practice in the form of meditation groups, workshops, classes, retreats, and one-on-one spiritual counseling.
