Making Progress in our Spiritual Practice
25 February, 10am - 5pm

Sometimes it feels as if we are not gaining the results we want from our meditation practice despite all our efforts. Gen Delek will explain the essential Kadampa practice of Heart Jewel which enables us to create the necessary inner conditions to make progress in our practice.

Forgiveness
10 March, 10am - 1pm

In holding on to the past, we create a deep wound in our heart that never seems to heal. Buddha teaches us how to identify the real objects of blame. Through this wisdom, we can learn to forgive others, let go of the past, and move in the direction of healthy, loving relationships and a happy life.

Living without Fear
28 April, 10am - 1pm

We have so many fears: loneliness, poverty, sickness, death, the future of this world and our children. Fear stops us from living our life and prevents us from finding any lasting inner peace. Buddha explained clearly the roots of our fears and provided clear practices for removing them. By applying these practices, we can live a life without fear, and learn to protect others from fear as well.
