The Best Meditation for Improving Concentration and Experiencing Deep Peace

This class is offered in person only

$10 per class, free for supporting members

We need a safe internal space in trying times and for our general well being. Improving our concentration in meditation naturally increases our experience of inner peace, happiness, confidence, as well as increasing our efficacy in all of other activities. Buddha highlighted one meditation in particular as the very best for increasing mindfulness and concentration, the meditation on the nature of the mind. In this series we will explore how gaining experience in this meditation helps us to easily overcome our tendency towards distraction, sets us up for making real progress in meditation, and helps us relate to our limitless potential!

Wisdom and Wonderment

According to Buddha, all suffering is born from a misapprehension of how things exist. Because we don’t understand the relationship between our world and our mind, we grasp at things and perpetuate a cycle of conflict and pain. Through developing a special wisdom that understands the true nature of reality, we begin to undermine all the unhappiness in our minds and lives. As Venerable Geshe Kelsang Gyatso said, “You must believe, the truth is unbelievable!” What could be more exciting (or a greater gift to ourselves and others) than to meditate on Buddha’s profound Teachings that lead to personal freedom and the exalted state of enlightenment!
