This Buddhist Mind Science series is offered in collaboration with Vajrapani Institute and Land of Medicine Buddha, with The Wisdom Center hosting & handling registrations. Drop-ins and beginners are especially welcome!
What is it that we all are pursuing? Do we succeed in finding it? Could we explore more wisely how to fulfill our deepest yearnings—and contribute to the happiness of others as well?
This experiential course draws on insights from both Buddhist and scientific understandings of the mind, exploring how meditation and mind training can lead to greater well-being, lasting happiness, and a positive impact on oneself and the world.
This four-class series, Cultivating Lasting Happiness, introduces fundamental tools for transforming the mind, including how to:
• Clarify a meaningful direction in life
• Balance the mind with equanimity and compassion
• Nurture warmheartedness and wisdom
• Engage with meditation in practical, accessible ways
While each class builds on the themes of the series, participants are welcome to attend any individual session. Each class stands on its own and offers valuable takeaways in both theory and practice—so feel free to drop in as you’re able!
Beginners and Drop-ins welcome!
