It is through our mind, particularly through our thoughts and feelings, that we experience our life as being wonderful and meaningful or we find ourselves in a state of constant worry or despair. 

In these classes we will discover the benefits of universal compassion, tranquil abiding, and wisdom. In this way we can open our mind to its limitless possibilities and learn to make ourselves happy. 

“Happiness and suffering are feelings – parts of our mind – and so their main causes are not to be found outside the mind. If we want to be truly happy and free from suffering we must improve our understanding of the mind.”
