One Dharma Nashville is a meditation group that embraces all Buddhist traditions and is not affiliated with any one. The three main Buddhist traditions of Zen, Vipassana and Tibetan have in common certian key elements and practices such as mindfulness, lovingkindness, compassion and non-attachment. These practices took root from Buddha's strong aspiration that all beings find peace and freedom from suffering. The practices can be utilized by anyone, whether Buddhist or not.

One Dharma Nashville meets each Monday night, 7 - 8:30 at the 12South Dharma Center, conveniently located at the corner of 12th and Linden. (The address is 2301 12th Avenue South, suite 202.)
