[ STUDY GROUPS OUTSIDE NEW YORK ]

Thousands of people have received Buddhist study materials from the Asian Classics Institute by mail. Many of those people deeply appreciate the teachings and are making efforts to improve their understanding and practice of Buddhism. Some people have formed study or discussion groups to help further their understanding, and to learn and grow with like-minded people in their neighborhood. Others have decided that they wish to teach using ACI study materials as the basis of their classes.

People regularly ask if there is anyone in their area using ACI materials that they can Email to study with. In an effort to help people study together, below is a listing of study groups using Asian Classics Institute materials along with their Email information.

Please be advised that the Asian Classics Institute does not recommend any of these study groups per se. Listing a study group below does not indicate that it has been evaluated in any way, or approved by the Asian Classics Institute. This listing is a service to help people study together, and does not indicate a recommendation or certification of the study group. Once study materials are supplied to individuals, how they are used is completely a matter of personal discretion. As with all spiritual things, be sure to check it out to verify that what is being done and said is valid and has not been compromised in some way.

If you do not have a local group In your area and are interested in having an ACI Teacher come out to teach, please email Summer Moore. In order to send out a teacher we do need you to be willing to help coordinate their arrival. This includes helping to find a location whether it be a living room or a yoga studio or some type of teaching space. We would also need raising awareness of the teaching in your area. There may be some other things we would need help with that we can specifically talk to you about later. If you are willing and able to help, then please email us and let us know your location and we'll try to coordinate getting a teacher out to you.
