Incredible, Approachable, Inspiring, Practical - Vajra Light has been all of these things for me in such a surprisingly effective, personal way. I, now 53, have consistently been a student of Kadam Donna for about three years - mainly on zoom during the pandemic and now in the amazing new space in Mamaroneck.
It would be too cheesy to say Life Changing lol, so in all seriousness I will say this practice, this center and Kadam Donna have helped Changed My Life .... (to be specific I am better at managing my emotions so some relationships have improved specifically with my kids, my mindset overall is much more positive which helps with the little stuff and the big that comes everyday and will keep coming, I've lost weight, a lot of weight - really at my age!!!!, I've made some incredible true friends - really at my age lol!!!). The space is so peaceful, inviting, super clean and definitely brings me calm. Everyone is super friendly, and amazingly all volunteer to run the entire center!
It was really worth taking that first...
Read moreI discovered Vajra Light Buddhist Center over 10 years ago and it is one of the most amazing discoveries of my life. From my first class I knew this place was special. The teachings and the guided meditations are deep and profound. I remained in the general practioner classes ever since . I have visited the beautiful temple upstate, met some amazing teachers, students , monks , and places that have eternally connected me to continuing my practice. There is so much to say.

I have learned so much and look forward to deepening my awareness. I am so very grateful to have Vajra Light...
Read moreVajra Light appeared in a Google search one day when I was researching meditation groups. My plan was to attend one class to get some tips and start meditating. I left the first class with such a sense of peace, I was intrigued to learn more. Now, just about one year later, I attend classes every week! Each week is even more inspiring and thought provoking than the last.
I recommend Vajra Light to anyone who has ever been curious about meditation or learning more about spiritual practice. The teachings are relevant, practical, inspiring and taught with passion. I am so glad I made that first step!
The center is run 100% by volunteers and I am thankful to each one of them for making Vajra Light such a special place. How lucky we are to have this gem in...
