I believe people are so unhappy because they try to understand what is happening out in the world and outside of themselves.
What is the nature of friendship? Our friends are those who we depend on; who we look to in order to belong, who we wish to help in their time of need, and who we seek for comfort and counsel. We spend so much time trying to invest in our status and our relationships in order to find fulfillment, and in doing so we frequently forget our own well-being, or put our own selves at the bottom of our list.
In my experience, whether the relationship is with a family member, spouse, or friend, these still exist outside of our inner world, and no dissatisfaction can be completely resolved from the outside. To find true peace and happiness we must start working from the inside out; we must understand our true nature and work to create peace inside ourselves. It is only when we can be a noble friend to ourselves, that we can be a noble friend to another. There is no way out but in.
Join me, Bhante Sujatha, in this 2-hour workshop for an open conversation about our habit of seeking outward gratification, and the path to discovering our inner value in order to learn how to authentically love ourselves and become our own best friends.
Activities in this program will include:
✨Lecture: “Being Your Own Best Friend.”
✨Instruction in the practice of meditation.
✨Guided mindfulness and loving-kindness meditation.
✨Time for Questions & Answers.

Benefits of this beautiful workshop can include:
✨Reduced stress, anxiety, worry, and depression.
✨Healing and enhancing relationships with others.
✨Gaining a sense of empowerment over challenging issues in life.
✨Insights into life’s purpose.
✨Awakening to the blessings of the present moment.
✨Confidence in attaining unshakable inner peace.
