Welcome to AniPalmo.org! This site is the place to find out what, when and where
Ani Palmo is teaching, and how to join the courses. Come on in, have a look around and enjoy!
Ani Palmo was sent to Cleveland, her hometown, by her root Lama, Tulku Pema Wangyal Rinpoche, with instruction to teach courses in Meditation and Buddhism.
Her aim is to provide instruction in Buddhist techniques, meditations, and philosophy in a way
that is applicable to both non-Buddhists and Buddhists alike. Course participants can take home practical tools for developing more compassion and wisdom without having to change their own spiritual practice and without having to adopt a spiritual practice if they have none.
At the same time, all courses and programs are applicable to those who are interested in doing Buddhist practice.
See below for a summary of the new courses and talks.

NEW COURSES
There are four classes this year: two continuing Developing Compassion series and two new classes. We are using a new text in the Meditation class which I'm sure will prove to be a very rich experience. I've also added a brand-new course called The Essence of Buddhism, which is
an introductory course using an extraordinary text as the study guide.
Please check out the Current Courses page for full details.
