Creating a Happy and Meaningful Life
Tuesdays, 7 - 8:30pm @ KMC SF
Everybody needs to be good-natured with a good heart, because in this way we can solve our own problems as well as those of others, and we can make a human life meaningful. (How to Transform Your Life)
August 15: The True Meaning of Life
What do we wish for, strive for or day dream about? What will never deceive us? Come ponder the meaning of enlightenment for yourself and others.
August 22: Fulfilling our Potential
In Buddhist teachings we find the method to ripen our seed to become a fully enlightened being. We realize our real potential for lasting happiness and being of benefit in our world.
August 29: Love More, Live Better
To follow the path to lasting happiness, enlightenment, there's no need to change our external lifestyle. We do not need to abandon our family, friends or enjoyment, and retire to a mountain cave. All we need to do is learn to cherish others.
What to expect in this class:
- Simple guided breathing meditation
- Practical teaching on how to solve problems in daily life
- Second guided meditation on the teaching topic
- Brief discussion and Q&A
- Everyone Welcome. Suitable for beginners and advanced practitioners.
