Course Detail
Many people have the compassionate wish to benefit others, but very few understand how to accomplish this effectively in daily life. Through improving our compassion we will develop a special mind that wishes to attain enlightenment for the benefit of others. With this special mind we become a true friend of the world, and are able to transform all our daily activities into skilful methods that benefit others.
The course will be based on the “Guide to the Bodhisattva’s Way of life” a deeply inspiring poem composed by the great Buddhist master, Shantideva
Each session will consist of teachings and guided meditations. We sit on chairs, and no exercise is involved.
