Join Henry Green this Saturday for a Half-day Course on the The Three Principal Aspects of the Path

THE PERFECT PATH TO FREEDOM
Three Steps and You`re There!

The Three Principal Aspects of the Path is a legendary brief poem composed 600 years ago by the extraordinary Spiritual Guide and founder of the New Kadampa lineage, Je Tsongkhapa. In merely 15 verses, Je Tsongkhapa distills the vastness of the Buddhist stages of the path to Enlightenment to three essential realizations. Gaining experience of these three, renunciation, bodhichitta, and the wisdom realizing emptiness, will give us the psychological and spiritual tools we need to confidently and joyfully transform every aspect of our life into the perfect path to freedom – the freedom of liberation and finally, the freedom of enlightenment.

Everybody welcome!

NEW SERIES STARTS TONIGHT WITH KADAM MORTEN:

Freedom from Painful Emotions

In Buddhism, painful emotions are known as ‘delusions’. They are called this precisely because they are delusional ways of seeing the world and they distort our perceptions. Therefore, delusions such as anger, desirous attachment, jealousy, and deluded pride are completely unreliable states of mind, guaranteed to create unhappiness for ourself and others. Buddha taught clear methods – based in meditation – for recognizing these delusions and transforming them into healthier, reality-based states of mind. By applying these methods and dismantling our painful states of mind we can remain peaceful and effective in even the most difficult situations. Could there be a more essential life skill?

This series is also offered tomorrow at 11:15am.

Everybody welcome!
