New Series: From Weeds to Wisdom: How to Grow a Life in Full Bloom
Every day, we’re sowing seeds, with every thought, every word, every small act of kindness or flash of irritation. The question is: do we know what we’re growing?
Non-virtuous actions bring suffering. Virtuous actions bring happiness. If we sow nettle seeds, it doesn’t make sense to get frustrated when we don’t harvest strawberries!
In this eight-week series, we’ll explore Buddha’s timeless and practical teachings on karma, the natural law of cause and effect that shapes every experience of our life. We’ll discover that happiness isn’t something we stumble into. It’s something we create. We’ve been the gardener all along.
This series is for anyone who has a mind and would like it to be a garden in full bloom.
March 2: Understanding Karma
March 9: How to Create Future (and Present) Happiness
