Freedom from the Eight Mundane Concerns
This short course will use Lama Zopa Rinpoche's book, "How to Practice Dharma" to look into the teachings on "Eight Mundane Concerns" the deep motives that often drives us to seek pleasure, fame, praise and material gains, and avoid all of their opposites, like pain, criticism, and lack of wealth. Freeing our minds from this striving, as Lama Zopa points out, is when spiritual practice truly begins.
Becoming Tara Day Retreat
A one-day meditation retreat to more deeply connect with the enlightened energy of Lady Tara the Liberator, known as the "Mother of the Buddhas". By meditating on Tara, we can begin to clear karmic obstacles to our spiritual path and activate our positive energies of wisdom and compassion.
