Meditation & Modern Buddhism in Dallas

Overview of Three Scopes of Lamrim
April 16, 23, 30
Meditation is at the heart of what we do here at Kadampa Mediation Center Texas. Please join us for this series of classes focusing on extracting the full meaning of our Lamrim meditations.

With each of our meditations on Lamrim, we can examine our mind, like looking into a mirror. Why do I want what I want? What are my reasons for improving myself at this time? The answers to these questions will change as we continue our progress in meditation practice. Reflecting in this way, our spiritual perspective will broaden, and we will develop a more and more stable experience of happiness.

Everyone Welcome!

A Mediation Series at KMC Texas

If we can accept that craving, anger, ignorance and other negative states of the mind are like diseases that make our body and mind unhealthy, we'll naturally want to find an effective way to start healing. Dharma is the Sanskrit word for Buddha's wisdom. Meditating on this wisdom is regarded as medicine for the mental pain caused by our negative minds.

Sometimes people encourage us to engage in meditation as part of a healthy lifestyle. If we've never meditated, we might wonder how such a simple action can have a healing effect. But, once we get started – especially with the meditations at the heart of Buddha's teachings – we can see why so many people recommend meditation.

Everyone is welcome to this class. The advice we'll receive is practical, relatable, and well suited to our busy lifestyles.

Meditación Clases en Español

Si logramos aceptar que el apego, la ira, la ignorancia y otros estados mentales negativos son como enfermedades que perjudican la salud de nuestro cuerpo y nuestra mente, naturalmente desearemos encontrar una manera eficaz de comenzar a sanar. Dharma es la palabra en sánscrito que designa la sabiduría de Buda. Meditar en esta sabiduría se considera una medicina para el sufrimiento mental causado por nuestros estados mentales negativos.

A veces, otras personas nos animan a practicar la meditación como parte de un estilo de vida saludable. Si nunca hemos meditado, tal vez nos preguntemos cómo una acción tan sencilla puede tener un efecto sanador. Sin embargo, una vez que comenzamos —especialmente con las meditaciones que constituyen el núcleo de las enseñanzas de Buda—, podemos comprender por qué tantas personas recomiendan la meditación.

Todo el mundo es bienvenido a esta clase. Los consejos que recibiremos son prácticos, cercanos y se adaptan perfectamente a nuestros ajetreados estilos de vida.

What do we grow in the garden of our mind? Learning how to cultivate happiness, like a farmer of virtue, is a special skill that we must train in. If we wish to be happy, especially in challenging times and circumstances, then we need to know how to cultivate our mind.

This meditation class will present simple techniques that can be gently incorporated into our lives. There is no need for drastic or dramatic changes. Just simple transformation through the cultivation of joyful attitudes.
