Genuine Peace and Happiness are Possible, Here… and Now. Come find out how.

Dharma is your positive, beneficial thinking. Studying, contemplating and meditating upon the teachings of the Buddha enable you to develop more beneficial thinking patterns. Reducing negative, harmful thinking is the first step to increasing your happiness. Your beneficial thinking assists everyone including yourself, because none of us is an island.

Hazlitt is in the midst of a 19-week, 10,000-mile, 35-city Dharma teaching tour across North America. He has received extensive Dharma training over the past eight years from his root teacher, the Great Perfection of Wisdom Lineage holder, His Eminence Dzogchen Khenpo Choga Rinpoche, a renowned scholar of the Dzogchen Lineage, an ancient Tibetan wisdom tradition of Buddhism.

In 2008, Khenpo Choga granted Hazlitt the title Upasaka Bodhisattva Pema Bhadra Dorje and Dharma Teacher of the Buddha Path.

Hazlitt has received ripening empowerments, personal instructions and extensive Dharma teacher training while attending over 21 retreats with Khenpo Choga and other masters such as His Holiness the 14th Dalai Lama. He is a graduate of both Dzogchen Lineage Internship Programs.

Hazlitt holds Refuge Vows, Lay Practitioner Pratimoksha Vows, Samaya Vows and Bodhisattva Vows, promising that his actions will be for the benefit of all beings.

When not traveling and teaching, Hazlitt lives in Las Vegas and has dedicated his time to fulfilling his kind teacher’s request to benefit all beings by instructing and guiding them in the authentic teachings of the Buddha.
