Reality Check

We could all use a reality check now and then. In this class, we examine the specific issues that we’re dealing with in our daily lives and then begin working on how to fix them. We’ll see that by making our meditations specific and personal, we can make swift progress Through teachings, meditations and discussions, each class helps us to sharpen the tools we need for becoming more mindful of what exactly is going on both around us and within us. “Why are we here and how can we become truly happier?” A good Reality Check will help us uncover the extremely empowering answers to these questions.

During the current series, we will explore how we can transform problems. Through Buddhist meditation we discover an inner peace that is an expression of or actual nature and our indestructible potential. Abiding in this inner refuge gives us the ability to skillfully accept suffering and painful emotions as they arise and then to transform them into positive minds, such as wisdom and love. This in turn gives rise to joyful energy to fulfill our deepest wishes and become the person we wish to be.
