Basic Buddhism course conducted by Vajiro (Richard) Chia is highly regarded and is a popular course. This twenty-two lessons intensive course is specially designed and tailored to suit the fast-paced and modern lifestyle. The course skilfully balances theoretical study of Dhamma with meditation practice, providing a strong basis for understanding of Buddha's teachings and a good foundation for mental development.
This course, "First Steps," Units 1 and 2 of the longer 6 Unit course "Going Beyond what you Believe to be True," is foundational to the rest, though it is highly valuable as a course in itself.
