An Evening with
Ven. Robina Courtin

Tuesday, October 22nd, 2024

Ven. Robina Courtin will be joining the IDP community in conversation. We are delighted to have her come and speak to us again. To allow for the topic to be current, have opened the floor to have her speak on anything that is resonating with her during that time. There will also be space for questions and answers from the audience.

“My understanding of Buddhist practice has deepened, my ability and confidence as a teacher has grown exponentially, I’ve started my own teaching practice and am offering my first online program this late fall/early winter. I have regular students and I am so happy to be doing this.”

— IDP Member & Former Teacher Training Student

“Mindfulness shows us what is happening in our bodies, our emotions, our minds, and in the world. Through mindfulness, we avoid harming ourselves and others.”

— Thich Nhat Hanh

“The teachers are why this program is so valuable. The different backgrounds of the teachers gives a wide variety of teachings and perspectives on mindfulness. And they are spacious! How glorious to have a teacher who can give you the space you need to learn!”
