SUMMARY:Meditations for a Meaningful Life
DESCRIPTION:The Stages of the Path to Enlightenment\, or “Lamrim”\, is a sophisticated\, practical presentation of Buddhist teachings\, which is designed to help us improve and grow in a deliberate and joyful way. Over 1000 years ago the Buddhist sage Atisha consolidated the 84\,000 teachings of Buddha into the Lamrim\, which  are 21 essential meditations\, revolutionizing the practice of Buddha’s teachings. Since then\, Lamrim has flourished throughout the world and it perfectly fits within our modern lifestyle. It is simple\, scientific\, and incredibly potent. \nThe Lamrim takes us step-by-step through carefully crafted meditations so we can purposefully nourish the qualities in our mind that lead to our happiness and reduce our painful thoughts and feelings. \nIn this class\, we will go one-by-one through the Lamrim\, drawing out how we can personally use these meditations and create our own meditation practice. There will be a special emphasis on the art of meditation and how to really make our meditations effective. \nJoin us afterwards for lunch in our World Peace Cafe! Lunch is available for purchase at check in and will be served after the class.

SUMMARY:Living Beyond Fear
DESCRIPTION:Is a life beyond fear even possible? \nAccording to Buddha\, fear arises from how we respond to our environment not from the environment itself. The fear and anxiety that we experience is therefore not inevitable. \nThrough the practice of meditation\, we can learn to work skillfully with our fear. Instead of allowing it to overwhelm us\, we learn to redirect it\, so that it moves us towards developing states of mind that naturally give rise to peace\, confidence and a strong sense of purpose. \nThis drop in class is part of the weekend retreat Living Beyond Fear with Kelsang Deckok. \nEveryone welcome! \nKelsang Dechok has studied and taught in both the US and the UK for many years. She was ordained in 2006 by Geshe Kelsang Gyatso Rinpoche\, and was requested to be the Resident Teacher of KMC Georgia in 2023. Whether it be through guided retreats or classes\, her lightheartedness and sincerity allow students to see how the teachings can benefit them in their busy modern lives. \n

SUMMARY:Meditations for a Meaningful Life
DESCRIPTION:The Stages of the Path to Enlightenment\, or “Lamrim”\, is a sophisticated\, practical presentation of Buddhist teachings\, which is designed to help us improve and grow in a deliberate and joyful way. Over 1000 years ago the Buddhist sage Atisha consolidated the 84\,000 teachings of Buddha into the Lamrim\, which  are 21 essential meditations\, revolutionizing the practice of Buddha’s teachings. Since then\, Lamrim has flourished throughout the world and it perfectly fits within our modern lifestyle. It is simple\, scientific\, and incredibly potent. \nThe Lamrim takes us step-by-step through carefully crafted meditations so we can purposefully nourish the qualities in our mind that lead to our happiness and reduce our painful thoughts and feelings. \nIn this class\, we will go one-by-one through the Lamrim\, drawing out how we can personally use these meditations and create our own meditation practice. There will be a special emphasis on the art of meditation and how to really make our meditations effective. \nJoin us afterwards for lunch in our World Peace Cafe! Lunch is available for purchase at check in and will be served after the class.
