Sunday Morning Meditation

Growing our Compassion and Wisdom

Sundays | 10 – 11:30am

Cost: $10 (Free for Members)

Happiness is a part of the mind that experiences inner peace, or peace of mind, so the real source of happiness must lie within the mind, not in external conditions.
-Geshe Kelsang Gyatso-

Learn to access and maintain peace of mind by identifying with your true nature and developing realistic minds of love, compassion and wisdom. In The New Eight Steps to Happiness by Geshe Kelsang Gyatso, we can discover a wealth of peace, joy and contentment through gaining familiarity with wisdom minds that always lead to happiness. Within The Buddhist Way of Loving Kindness, the subtitle of this text, we will learn practical methods and meditations to make our relationships harmonious, to transform difficulties into spiritual growth and to develop a profound wisdom that overcomes our confusion and suffering.
