In this class, we will explore Buddha’s profound and simple advice that will make our mind more peaceful, compassionate and wise. Each week we will learn about and meditate on this ancient wisdom that comes from Buddha’s teachings on Training the Mind, or Lojong. With experience from this class, we can then carry our insight and practice into our daily lives and discover the power of this wisdom through our own experience.
