The Happiness Course

Buddha’s teachings give us a swift and direct method to help us to attain the happiness that we all long for, and that is our actual nature. During this course, based on the special arrangement of meditations known as lam rim, we will learn how to connect to our potential for inner peace, love and freedom and begin our journey to a happiness we hardly knew existed.

Joseph Giacona'sinterest in Buddhism began while in college. Subsequently, he read many of Geshe Kelsang Gyatso's books and found them clear and inspring. It was upon seeing Geshe Kelsang teach in New York in 2001 that he discovered Chakrasambara Kadampa Meditation Center in New York City. Joseph has been a committed student and practitioner ever since. He teaches at the Williamsburg branch.
