Sunday Sangha – 26th July 2026

Scott Tusa

This session is led by Scott Tusa.

Start Time: 11 am PDT (LA) / 2 pm EDT (NY) / 7 pm BST (London) / 8 pm CEST (Paris). 90-minute live session.

This week’s theme: Drop the Caring, Find the Caring

Caring is natural – but it can tighten into something anxious and depleting, a gripping that wears us down and, oddly, gets in the way of real care. We’ll look at the difference between over-caring and genuine caring, and practice letting the grip fall away so a steadier, more sustainable warmth can arise on its own.

“Carefree doesn’t mean careless. It is not that you don’t care about others, not that you don’t have compassion or are unfriendly. Carefree is being really simple, from the inside.”
– Tsoknyi Rinpoche, Open Heart, Open Mind

Scott Tusa

Scott Tusa is a meditation teacher, Buddhism mentor, and former monk who has spent the last two decades exploring how to embody and live meaningfully through the Buddhist path.

At age sixteen his mother’s death sparked a deep longing for healing and spiritual wisdom that eventually led him to Tibetan Buddhism. He spent his early twenties seeking out and learning from a variety of Tibetan Buddhist masters, and was ordained by His Holiness the 14th Dalai Lama as a Buddhist monk at age twenty-eight.

Scott spent the next nine years as a monk, deepening his understanding of the Dharma, engaging in solitary meditation retreats, and continuing his studies with teachers in India, Nepal, and the United States, including his main teachers Lama Zopa Rinpoche and Tsoknyi Rinpoche.

Since 2008, he has been teaching Buddhist meditation in group and one-to-one settings in the United States, Europe, Latin America, and online, bringing Buddhist wisdom to modern meditators, helping them develop more confidence, inner wisdom, and joy in their practice.
