Looking for an individual to work closely with the Executive Director who is based in Berkeley. They would have knowledge of project management and willing to work closely with the Director to ensure that annual projects of the Foundation are organized in a systematic way.
Our work in India is to help revive the traditional recitations of the words of the Buddha in Pali and to work at each sacred site of the Buddha. We are looking for someone to help manage projects, liaison with locals (Hindi preferable), and has a deep connection to the Buddhadharma.
This person should have strong communication skills as a monthly newsletter would be sent out. They should also have strong skills in writing letters to potential donors.

Mission Statement
At Dharma College, our mission is to translate ancient wisdom into everyday life. Using whatever circumstances we encounter as an opportunity for growth, we begin to manifest the extraordinary potential of being. These uncertain times provide perfect conditions to discover what is holding us back from ever-available freedom. As we come to understand mind and self more deeply, we can open awareness, engage more closely with experience, and find a rich source for inner development. This mission governs all of our work here at the College. As both a place for learning and a community of those who share similar interests, Dharma College is creating a vibrant environment, a place for work, and serious inner and outer study. Inviting wisdom into our lives depends on our taking the first step when the right conditions arise. We open our gates to you with the wish that we may take this journey together.
Description
Ancient Roots - Modern Conditions
Founded by Venerable Tarthang Tulku, one of the first traditionally trained Tibetan Buddhist masters to settle in America, Dharma College is neither
a typical American college nor a traditional Dharma Center. Situated at the crossroads of Eastern spirituality and Western intellectual pursuits, our program blends aspects of psychology, philosophy, spirituality and science, with a focus on practical application in everyday life.
The format of our classes is interactive and discussion-based. Awareness practices along with contemplations bring balance to the open dialogue, study, and conceptual inquiry we engage in. Without being subject to dogma or proselytizing, without long hours of meditation or religious rituals, students develop a deeper understanding of mind, reality, and self and can effectively transform their way of being. Dharma College is here to serve everyone who is interested in pursuing inner knowledge and living a more meaningful life.
