Level 1 (L1) activities are appropriate for the newcomer, who has had little or no experience with meditation or Buddhism.

Level 2 (L2) indicates that the activity would work well for anyone who has a basic knowledge of Buddhism and some meditation experience.

Level 3 (L3) activities are designed for more experienced practitioners, who have a solid understanding of Buddhist principles and meditate regularly.

No indicator means that the activity is appropriate for anyone, regardless of experience.
