Community Gatherings

The Foundation for Happiness and Enlightenment offers free community gatherings focused on teachings of Taoists, and many teachers like Joel and Alice Seigneur and Joyce Lo Presti. The gatherings are in San Francisco, California, Chandler, Arizona, Scarborough, Maine and broadcasted via teleconference for attendees globally. Preregistration is requested and registration for the class includes consent to use or publish your name, recorded image and voice, which will be made available for the growth and evolution of others. The format of the gatherings includes questions and answers of general interest about the Tao, life, afterlife, karma, evolution and other life secrets. It also includes meditations, guidance and enlightening experiences shared among all.

We gather regularly and by adding your name to our newsletter, you will receive the information needed to join us in person or remotely.
