About this Event
Stopping Self-Sabotage: Buddhist Practices for Self-Esteem
Tuesday evenings with Gen Kelsang Rabka (in-person or live-streamed)
7.30 – 8.45pm: Nov 25, Dec 2, 9
“Objects exist only in relation to the minds that cognize them. Since an object’s nature and characteristics depend upon the mind that beholds it, we can change the objects we see by changing the way we see them. We can choose to view ourself, other people and our world in whatever way is most beneficial. By steadfastly maintaining a positive view we gradually come to inhabit a positive world, and eventually a Pure Land.”
— Geshe Kelsang Gyatso
We all want to feel good about ourselves, but all too easily we become bogged down by self-critical cycles of thought and feelings of inadequacy which can adversely affect our daily life, our relationships and hold us back from achieving our true potential. Authentic confidence and self-esteem come from within and don’t depend upon our worldly achievements, the approval from others, having a high status or our appearance. They are mental skills that we can learn and strengthen, gradually developing a more and more positive relationship with ourselves and our true inner potential.
During this 3-class series we will explore how Buddhist wisdom offers us a different way of viewing ourself, relating to the extraordinary potential that we all have rather than to our limitations. Developing this healthy self-view will naturally lead us to improve our good qualities and cultivate positive, happy states of mind, as well as enabling us to be a positive influence on those around us.
Each class includes:
- Guided Meditations: Learn calming and transformative meditations that help to cultivate a positive self-view
- Practical Teachings: Learn accessible advice that helps us to maintain a peaceful mind and a positive outlook amidst the challenges of modern daily life
- Question & Answer: Feel free to hang back after class and have your questions answered to ensure that you walk away from the course knowing how to apply what you've learnt with confidence
No prior experience or particular religious beliefs are necessary to attend this series – everyone is welcome!
