Went for a Wednesday meditation class and session and was impressed. They did not provide a "sell," and very friendly. Nice space in a old building in a part of town that is just outside of the more well traveled side of the highway. Nice quiet place to be mindful

Rime aims to be the most welcoming, all inclusive, spiritual community center in Kansas City. They succeeded. After more than 3 years of casual attendance, never joining as a member or claiming a religious affiliation, they still receive me with genuine warm no matter how long it’s been. And most importantly, they never ask me to officially join as a member or pressure me to donate or volunteer. They are truly the most welcoming spiritual community I have ever found.

Every one of us comes to the Rime Center for a very different and unique personal reason. However, something that we share is the sense of community. If you would like to find a place in which you feel that you belong, this is the place., the Rime Center is inclusive, warm, friendly and fun.
However, the center will also give you the opportunity to learn the teachings of the Buddhist tradition and you will be able to either learn them for the very first time or, support your already established practice and help you submerge yourself unto your studies without limitations.
Friends not familiar with Buddhist traditions some times ask me, is the Rime Center a Church? Is Buddhism a religion or a philosophy? My reply is that you would be very smart to approach Buddhism with an open mind, not thinking of it as a religion nor as a philosophy. And, to allow yourself some time before asking yourself for your own perception.
Your reply could be that it doesn't matter what it is, because it helps your pursuit for happiness or, you might have a distinct reasoning as to why, to you, it means one or the other.
Either way, I hope you stop by and I hope you sit for a while and if you have any questions do not hesitate to ask anyone there.
Fondly:

Extremely friendly, knowledgeable, and an overall amazing place for those interested in a more traditional Buddhism.
