About the Bozeman Insight Community (BIC)

The Bozeman Insight Community is a welcoming community that offers the Buddha’s priceless teachings on wisdom and compassion to all those who seek them. Centered on a commitment to personal practice  we support the development and expression of our inherent wisdom  and compassion for the benefit of all beings.

Weekly Meetings:

The BIC meets weekly on Thursday evenings at the Bozeman Dharma Center, located at 1019 East Main St. Suite #202. The building is set back from Main Street with a large parking area in front. Enter the two story red brick building from the front doors and take stairs or elevator to second floor. (Best not to use the outside stairs.) Doors open at 6:40 PM, the evening’s program begins at 7:00 PM and ends at 8:30 PM. A forty-minute meditation is followed by a dharma talk with tea and discussion. Everyone is warmly welcome!

The BIC also hosts a drop-in guided sit on Tuesday mornings from 10:30-11:30 AM. Guided meditations will vary week to week, providing an opportunity to try new practices and ways of working with life’s challenges. The four heart qualities known as the Brahma Viharas (Noble Abodes) will be cultivated with variations on ways to evoke and develop them: Kindness, Compassion, Joy and Equanimity.
