We are alive therefore we will die.
Join us for an inspiring evening where we will receive an unparalleled Buddhist insight into death and dying. This will help us to develop a healthy awareness of our own mortality in a way that will totally enrich and transform our life.
When we gain insight into the continuum of our mind — and that death is the permanent separation of the mind and the body, not the death of consciousness — this realization expands our horizons and is very joyful and liberating.
“There is nothing more precious than our human life. Having been born as a human being we have immense freedom to accomplish almost anything we want. With so much freedom, we need to ask ourself what is the most meaningful way to use our life. What will make us truly happy? What will benefit others most? And when this life is over, what will help us then?” Venerable Geshe Kelsang Gyatso, ‘Living Meaningfully, Dying Joyfully’
Following the talk we can enjoy light refreshments and socialize.
Our teacher, Gen Kelsang Lingpur, has inspired over one million people on The Modern Buddhism podcast - "What Facing Death Taught Me About Life."
