The Power of a Peaceful Mind
Kadampa Meditation Center DC, 1200 Canal St SW, Washington, DC, USThe Power of a Peaceful Mind
In situations of conflict, we easily become angry. However, anger limits us and leaves a trail of painful feelings. On the other hand, the creative mind of patience opens us to options. In this series, we learn to understand and meditate on patience. We will discover how meditation helps us to find peaceful solutions to everyday problems.REGISTRATION
