Understanding Dreams
& the Nature of our Reality
Day Course
All wisdom paves the way to happiness, but the highest wisdom—the wisdom that realizes ultimate truth, emptiness—holds the key to lasting peace. In this meditation course, Gen Chodor, resident teacher of KMC Canada, will practically explain how this profound understanding of emptiness removes suffering at its root, offering us freedom from all pain.
“Through realizing emptiness every kind of problem will automatically cease. This I promise. I am telling you this from my own experience; I am not just intellectual. This is the real meaning of your having met Geshe Kelsang Gyatso.”

Parking spaces are limited in the area. For this reason, it is easier to come by public transport if this is an option for you.
It is possible to find parking in the nearby streets. However, it is generally not possible to park for more than 3 hours during the day. It is necessary to have a permit in order to park overnight in the area.
Temporary day parking spots nearby: Some options are available for temporary day parking spots nearby, for example with the following companies: Green P Parking, Spot Hero.
Temporary on-street permit parking in Toronto: Provided space is available, a temporary parking permit may be purchased by residents and their guests to park a motor vehicle on a street designated under the permit parking program of the city of Toronto. This program generally services those residential areas where driveways are not common. If you choose this option, please avoid parking on Crawford St. if possible. You may get a ticket as it is complaint driven and the residents have limited space for their own street parking on Crawford St.
