Riverdale Buddhist Meditation Class
How to Be Happy Without Being Perfect
$10 per class, free for supporting members
This class is offered in-person only
You might feel that in order to be happy, you need to also be perfect. Perfect at work, perfect with your friends, perfect with your family. Who came up with that idea? This way of thinking is demanding something from us that no one can actually fulfill. It is a path to feeling stressed and anxious, but not any happier.
Buddha taught that happiness is simply a state of mind within us. We do not need to go looking for it; it’s already there. What we need to do is learn how to connect to that natural source of happiness. In this series, we will learn methods based on Buddhist teachings and meditation to connect to our Buddha Nature – our indestructible potential for real joy. That’s the “perfect” that we need. Perfect happiness.
