In our pursuit of happiness, we have tried to change so many things in our life. Although we might find temporary relief, our lives are so often filled with frustration, business, and lack of satisfaction. We usually overlook the most powerful and effective way to transform our life: transforming our mind. By learning to do this in meditation and in daily life, we can definitely find a much deeper peace and joy than we ever imagined was possible.
In these classes, Buddhist monk Gen Kelsang Tabkay will introduce the basic teachings and meditations that are time tested to increase our inner peace and remove negative states of mind. Class format includes a short introductory guided meditation, brief prayer, teaching, and time for questions. Classes are on a drop-in basis, no need to attend the entire series. Everyone is welcome to these meditation classes!
