Special Sunday Series with Kadam Matthew

Wisdom Imagination and the Creation of the World

In Buddhism, we say “everything is created by the mind” … but how?

How does this world, appearing so vividly, come from our mind? Can our beliefs really change reality? How does our imagination function? How can our conceptual minds help us on the path?

In this series, Kadam Matthew will guide a detailed exploration into the process through which our mind creates our world. Relying on Venerable Geshe Kelsang’s profound explanations in texts like Ocean of Nectar and How to Understand The Mind, we can gain deep confidence in the possibility of creating a world of freedom for ourselves and others. With this confidence, our Lamrim practice will come alive, our contemplations will touch our hearts, and we will attain realization in this life.

Everyone is welcome. Some experience of Kadam Dharma is encouraged, but a strong interest in Dharma and a willingness to study will suffice.
