A NEW YEAR, A NEW YOU!
Introduction series from Sunday 19 February to 2 April – 1.30pm
Sounds familiar…how many times have we heard this, tried to action it, but come March, it is long forgotten.
Real change and happiness need to come from within and not from our external environment.
Together, we will explore profound topics to give you insight into the current circumstances we all face and empower you to see them from a new perspective.
Over the six weeks* everyone is welcome to join class teacher, Caterina Neal. Some of the Dharma topics will include the importance of understanding suffering and delusions, also known as negative minds, and then how the remarkable step of ‘taking refuge’ can help.
These topics are from the small – medium scope of the Essence of the Path to Enlightenment in Tibetan Buddhism by the renowned scholar, Venerable Geshe Acharya Thubten Loden.
*A break on the Labor Day weekend in March, Sun 12 March.
