Join 28-year-old Shambhala Buddhist practitioner Lodro Rinzler for the Washington D.C. leg of his book tour. The Buddha Walks into a Bar is a book for those who are spiritual but not religious, who are disillusioned by the state of the world, who are sick of their jobs (and just started last Tuesday), who like drinking beer and having sex and hate being preached at, who are striving to deepen their social interactions beyond the digital realms of Twitter and Facebook. This is Buddhism presented to a generation leaving the safe growth spurts of college and entering a turbulent and uncertain work force.

The Buddha Walks into a Bar is Lodro Rinzler's introduction to Buddhism for anyone who wants to ride the waves of life with mindfulness and compassion. Join the author and teacher for meditation instruction, a discussion on how to manage the pervasive "Incredible Hulk Syndrome," and ultimately how you can start to bring light to a dark world.
