Jack returns to explore the nature of Dharma as universal, immediate, timeless, beneficial, protective, and available to all.
“The Dharma is universal, it’s immediate, it’s open-handed, it’s to be experienced by each person for themselves directly, it’s timeless. The truth of life is here to be discovered for any individual with eyes open to see.” – Jack Kornfield
