Buddha explained that all our problems and suffering arise from confused, negative states of mind, and all our happiness and good fortune arise from peaceful, positive states of mind. He taught methods for gradually overcoming negative states of mind such as anger and jealousy, and methods for developing positive minds such as love, compassion and wisdom. By practising Buddha’s teachings, even in the midst of modern daily life, we can develop lasting inner peace.
In these classes, Steve Grover will look at Buddha’s teachings as explained in the book Modern Buddhism ~ The Path of Compassion & Wisdom by Geshe Kelsang Gyatso. Each class contains a practical talk and two guided meditations. His classes are practical, uplifting and inspiring, and often marked by his great sense of humour. Everyone is welcome!
