Dharma Garden Songbook – The songbook we use with our Dharma Garden families during Dharma School and Dharma Camp. A collection of original songs, songs from Nat Needle’s American Buddhist Songbook, Plum Village, other buddhist centers, and some popular tunes that have been adapted to have Buddhist lyrics. Included are illustrations from our Dharma School students, as well as simple images to help our non-reading students stay engaged. The book is 48 pages and viewed best in a notebook or spiral-bound.

Dharma Garden Songbook with Chords – The same songbook but with guitar chords written above the lyrics.
