The Meditation on Developing Profound Empathy and Love

Love can give rise to great happiness but all too often it seems to lead to pain and suffering. In ordinary life, we often confuse love with desirous attachment, and as a result we often experience pain and disappointment within our so-called ‘loving’ relationships.

But authentic love can never cause pain. It only ever produces happiness. Why? Because true love actually arises from a profound understanding of our interdependence and interconnection with everyone.

In this special day course, Gen Kelsang Dragpa will explain how we can start to see our love for our partner, family and friends from a fresh, new perspective by learning how to discriminate clearly between love and attachment.

In this way our relationships will become more harmonious, joyful and long-lasting.
The day will include guided meditations, teachings, discussion and time for Q&A

Main takeaways are :

• Attachment is not the same as authentic love
• Love will never cause us pain
• Cherishing others will make us happy
• The best self-care is cherishing yourself AND others
