Welcome to DharmaBridge Live!

DharmaBridge is a deep spiritual training for meeting life wholeheartedly, with total willingness. It is a unique combination of practices, rituals, and studies designed by Kelly Blaser to nourish and sustain your evolved awakening.

The path of DharmaBridge begins with finding out where you are stuck in your life, by re-establishing inquiry and discernment. We draw upon an array of dharmic traditions in the process of returning to wholeness; the Buddhist practices of loving kindness (metta) and compassion (tonglen) and the deep wisdom of the non-dual Shaiva Tantra. Ultimately, DharmaBridge's intent is to deliver it's pilgrims back into center, offering them the tools they need to get "resourced". Once we return to ourselves, we do the work of cultivating a mindset of generosity and purpose.

In this inaugural DharmaBridge Live setting, we will gather together in person, on the campus of Mount Madonna Center, in the Santa Cruz Mountains of California, to share an immersive weekend absorbing the DharmaBridge path wisdom teachings.
