Half-day Course this Saturday with Kadam Morten:

HOW TO UNDERSTAND THE MIND

Since it is our mind that determines our experience of everything, if we want to improve those experiences (and who doesn’t?) we will need to improve our mind. In order to do that, we will first need to understand what precisely our mind is and how it functions.

In this course we will delve into an understanding of our own mind, not just intellectually, but also experientially, through meditation. We will come to understand the nature and function of the mind and how we can improve it. Gaining insight in this way will not only help us in our everyday interactions, it will also open us up to the extraordinary and joyful spiritual dimension of our being.

Everyone welcome

Attend the Fall Festival at the IKRC Grand Canyon and Receive the Blessing Empowerment of Dorje Shugden

Protector from All Obstacles

In challenging times we need to find protection from dangers and worries so that we can make continual spiritual progress. Dorje Shugden is a Wisdom Buddha who destroys all our obstacles and gathers all the conditions we need to practice Dharma and transform life’s difficulties into stepping stones to enlightenment. Whether we’re facing daily troubles or spiritual obstacles, our Dharma Protector offers us unwavering care and protection. By drawing close to him we become fearless, with the spiritual strength to help both ourselves and others. Modern life is too often filled with uncertainty, but in Dorje Shugden we will always find an invaluable ally and unchanging friend.

with Gen-la Kelsang Dekyong

Gen-la Dekyong is the General Spiritual Director of the New Kadampa Tradition - International Kadampa Buddhist Union. She is the Resident Teacher at Manjushri Kadampa Meditation Center, the mother center of our tradition, and teaches extensively internationally. Gen-la studied and practiced for many years with her Spiritual Guide, Venerable Geshe Kelsang Gyatso Rinpoche and is his close disciple. She is deeply respected and treasured throughout the Kadampa world for her sincere reliance on her Spiritual Guide, taking his teachings to heart and putting them into practice in every aspect of her life. She is recognized as a fully qualified Teacher of Sutra and Tantra.

Gen-la will be assisted by senior NKT Teachers who will lead the meditations during the Festival.

New Series with Kadam Morten starts Monday evening at 7:00pm

This class is also repeated on Tuesdays at 11:15am.

TRANSFORMING FEAR INTO CONFIDENCE

This series will allow us to take more deeply to heart the powerful insights given to us in the recent public talk by Gen-la Dekyong, A Life Beyond Fear. We will learn how to respond creatively and with wisdom to our various fears and anxieties so that instead of inhibiting us they end up moving us towards an authentic inner confidence. In particular we will learn to identify the limited view of ourselves that underlies all our fears. Learning to let go of this mistaken crippling view will open us up to a whole new way of experiencing life.

Please note: this series is also offered to those who didn`t attend the public talk at the Town Hall with Gen-la Dekyong.

Everybody welcome!

What a wonderful few days we’ve had this week with Gen-la Dekyong visiting New York City. Today Gen-la presided Wishfulfilling Jewel puja and gave an inspiring talk to our community. We finished the day with a party and then said farewell to Gen-la … until we’ll all next meet again at the International Fall Festival in October at the IKRC Grand Canyon (everybody’s welcome to attend!)
