Inciting Happiness: Ancient Wisdom for Modern Life with Venerable Sumati Marut and Cindy Lee
This teaching will illuminate Je Tsongkapa’s seminal Buddhist text, The Three Principal Paths. Renunciation, compassion and wisdom form the foundation of all authentic spiritual traditions and are as powerful today as they were thousands of years ago. Renunciation refers to our ability to recognize and detach from the sources of our own suffering in order to reach lasting happiness. Compassion arises when we recognize the suffering of others and commit ourselves to helping them. In order to truly relieve the suffering of others we must understand why and how to help them by cultivating wisdom. Using wisdom we are able to pierce through the mere appearances of things, understand the deeper truths of existence, and change our lives. In addition to Ven. Marut’s teachings, each class will also include guided meditations on the three paths led by master meditator, Cindy Lee.
