The Teacher Training Program (TTP)Two evenings a week at KMC California - currently: Thursdays and Fridays 7:30 – 9:30pm The Teacher Training Program (TTP) is designed for people who wish to train as authentic Dharma Teachers or simply engage with Buddha's teachings in the deepest possible manner. In addition to completing the study of fourteen texts of Sutra and Tantra, the student is required to observe certain commitments with regard to behavior and way of life, and to complete a number of meditation retreats. Through a deep and continuing commitment to the program of study, meditation, discussion, and retreat, we can gain deep experience of Buddha's teachings, establish a strong meditation practice and become a qualified teacher in our own right. Enrollment in Teacher Training Program requires approval by the Education Program Coordinator.
