Upcoming Class Schedule & Topics
A Practical Guide to Buddhist Meditation
This series will provide a practical guide to Buddhist meditation that teaches us how to find happiness from within by developing our inner peace, and in this way making our lives more meaningful. Without inner peace there is no real happiness at all. Suffering and unhappiness do not exist outside the mind; they are feelings and thus part of our mind. Therefore it is only by controlling our mind that we can permanently stop our problems and make ourself truly happy.
