New Series: A New Way of Being - The Meditation on Realizing Our Potential and Purpose
$10 per class, free for supporting members
Because “our world” is really only our personal experience of what we perceive and how we perceive it, Buddha has explained that if we change our mind we change our world. Our experience of the world depends on our state of mind.
A New Way of Being: The Meditation on Realizing Our Potential and Purpose. The first meditation in the Lamrim is the meditation on our Precious Human Life. The purpose of this contemplation is to lead us to recognizing the incredible potential and purpose of our present human life, giving rise to an abiding experience of joy, gratitude, a powerful motivation to make the most of every day.
For this meditation to succeed, we need to actually engage in it! In this series we will explore how to do more than just occasionally ‘dip our toe’ in the wisdom of the teaching on our Precious Human Life. We will learn how to immerse ourselves in this liberating and joy-inducing wisdom, both in meditation and, even more importantly, during the meditation break, in our daily life.
