Intro to Buddhism and Meditation: Compassion April 23, 2008

Taught by Ven. Dhammadinna and Tenzin Jesse, this series offers an experience of the meditations and insights that eventually lead to extraordinary compassion supported by wisdom. This practice is presented in the context of a comprehensive, authentic overview of the Buddhist path including meditation practice in the Burmese Theravadin tradition as well as teachings in the Tibetan tradition.

We will deepen our ability to work with painful emotions and moods, enhancing optimism, patience and even-mindedness in the face of habitual tendencies toward frustration and dissatisfaction.

Dharma practice enables us to bring all our experiences, both pleasant and unpleasant, into the path of compassion and provides a tool box of practical antidotes for dysfunctional thoughts and feelings. Meditation brings clarity and awareness to our mental states, body and feelings, enhancing control over our experiences and offering us a stable and peaceful happiness that radiates outward to benefit all those with whom we come in contact with.
