Sunday Drop-in Meditation Classes
The Extraordinary Nature of Our Mind:
Finding Happiness from Within
Meditation Classes in February:
Sundays, 10-11:15am
Available by live stream to members
We often relate to our mind as though it is quite set. For example, we might say to a friend, “I’m set in my ways.” So if we have a tendency toward depression, anxiety, attachment or annoyance, we get so familiar with these tendencies that we simply think this is how our mind is. We identify with these limited, often painful minds, and try to somehow accommodate them as we navigate our daily life. When we begin to understand our mind and the practice of meditation, we start to gain a much different and more positive perspective: That our mind is quite extraordinary, flexible, and has a natural potential to fulfill our greatest desire for lasting happiness.
In these classes, we will learn about the mind and how we can build peace from within. With Buddhist nun and Resident Teacher Gen Chöyang.
