It is important to understand that although we may have many negative states of mind arising daily, we don’t have to identify with them and follow them. Buddha taught how to control our mind and establish inner peace even in the midst of stubborn or painful emotions. If we apply the curative medicine of cultivating positive minds, which are a reflection of our true nature, we become happier and more settled inside. In this way, many of our daily problems become less problematic and we begin to experience the freedom we long for.

These classes are great for beginners, but are also suitable for those with more experience. Each class will include a different teaching, and guided meditations. You can attend any or all of the classes.  Everyone is welcome.

The Courage to be Compassionate

Tuesday evenings, 7-8:30pm
April 11-25

$12 | No cost for members

When our mind is governed by compassion it is always at peace.

Pure compassion is a mind that finds the suffering of others unbearable but it does not make us depressed. In fact, it gives us tremendous energy to help others and to complete the spiritual path for their sake. Compassion is our Buddha nature; our potential to become an enlightened being. Learn how to develop authentic compassion in the face of our own and others’ suffering.

These classes are great for beginners, but are also suitable for those with more experience. Each class will include a different teaching, and guided meditations. You can attend any or all of the classes.  Everyone is welcome.

As conscientious Dharma practitioners, we should observe our own shortcomings instead of being preoccupied with those of other people.
