Half-day course this Saturday at KMC NYC
Positive Empathy: The Power of Rejoicing
with Heather Chernack
Saturday, Sept 6, 10:00 - 1:30pm + Q&A

Usually, when we think about empathy, it’s along the lines of “I feel your pain”, but is there also a positive empathy? According to Buddha there is and it’s called rejoicing. It turns out that learning to identify positively with and rejoice in others’ experience of happiness, good fortune, and other good qualities, is one of the quickest and most effective methods to develop happiness ourselves … both immediately and in the future. Also, by rejoicing in others’ good qualities – such as their confidence or kindness – we naturally grow those good qualities within ourselves.

It’s also one of the easiest spiritual practices to learn how to do.
In this course, Heather will explain the practice of rejoicing and guide meditations on it so that we can gain first-hand experience.

Everybody welcome!

Join us for A Life Beyond Fear
Thursday, September 11
7:00 - 8:30pm

Is a life beyond fear even possible?
According to Buddha, fear arises from how we respond to our environment not from the environment itself. The fear and anxiety that we experience is therefore not inevitable.

Through the practice of meditation, we can learn to work skillfully with our fear. Instead of allowing it to overwhelm us, we learn to redirect it, so that it moves us towards developing those states of mind that naturally give rise to peace, confidence and a strong sense of purpose.

Based on her nearly 40 years of experience of meditation, Buddhist nun Gen-la Kelsang Dekyong, senior disciple of the great Buddhist teacher, Venerable Geshe Kelsang Gyatso Rinpoche and Spiritual Director of the New Kadampa Tradition, will guide us into recognizing our potential for a meaningful and joyful life truly beyond fear.

Everyone welcome.
