About This Event
Want to learn to meditate, but aren’t sure how to get started? Or have you started meditating, but haven’t been able to get a regular practice going?
In this Friday night lecture Gen Dorje will cover the fundamentals of meditation from the Buddhist point of view. The class will include a short guided meditation and a teaching on the key principles that will help you overcome any obstacles to starting and maintaining a practice of meditation.
“If we train in meditation, our mind will gradually become more and more peaceful, and we will experience a purer and purer form of happiness. Eventually we will be able to stay happy all the time, even in the most difficult circumstances.”
-Venerable Geshe Kelsang Gyatso Rinpoche
