September’s classes and courses explore the illuminating mind of wisdom, the real antidote to all our troubles and the true source of lasting happiness.
From Sun 31st Aug: The way things really are
Buddha said that all phenomena are mere appearances to mind, totally dependent on the minds that perceive them. Their ultimate nature is emptiness. How can we understand this, and what does it mean for us?
From Sun 7th: The emptiness of our body
When we become familiar with meditation on the emptiness of the body, our grasping at our body will be reduced, we will experience far less suffering, anxiety and frustration in relation to our body, our physical tension will diminish and our health will improve.
From Sun 14th: Mind is the nature of emptiness
By contemplating, ‘All phenomena that appear to my mind are the nature of my mind. My mind is the nature of emptiness,’ we will eventually gain an undefiled wisdom that directly realises the emptiness of all phenomena.
From Sun 21st: How to stop grasping at I
The object we grasp at most strongly is our self or I. By understanding and meditating on the emptiness of our I, this grasping will reduce and eventually cease altogether. Then we will be permanently free from all suffering.
From Sun 28th: Freedom from extremes
Learn eight special meditations that help us to reduce and eventually eradicate eight different aspects of our self-grasping.
