Practicing the Buddhist Path

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.
The 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.
In 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.
Join us afterwards for lunch in our World Peace Cafe! Lunch is available for purchase at check in and will be served after the class.

Discover practical methods to overcome life’s everyday challenges in our meditation series, How to Solve Our Human Problems, based on the teachings of Geshe Kelsang Gyatso. We will focus in particular on understanding and transforming anger—a destructive habit that often leads to pain, regret, and strained relationships. Through simple meditation techniques, you’ll learn how to respond with clarity, patience, and purpose, allowing you to become more effective and at ease in daily life. As conflict and frustration begin to dissolve, you may find that meditation doesn’t take time away from your life, instead it frees your energy for what truly matters.

Living with wisdom and kindness.

This meditation series invites you to step out of cycles of reactivity, stress, and worry, and discover a more peaceful way of being. Rather than feeling discouraged by the challenges of life and the world, you’ll learn to meet them with a calm, caring mind, one that sees both the reality of suffering and the genuine potential for peace within ourselves and others.

Everyone Welcome!
