Prerecorded for the class on March 17, 2021 for the Human Spirit: Buddhist Psychoanalytic Training Program based in Lod, Israel. This is class is called “Cohort Two,” and is in their third year of a seven year course.

Their Monday classes are live and uploaded after the fact. Wednesdays are prerecorded and watched by the group together with some follow up discussion that is not recorded. 

This is due to the time different between Israel (where the students are) and the Western United States (where the teacher, Ven. Yönten, is currently).
