Monday Evening Lam Rim Meditation
Lamrim Meditation class meets on Mondays @ 7 -8pm
Lamrim Meditations are the basis of Kadampa Buddhist mental development, and provide a complete summary of the essential teachings of Buddha. Students with all levels of experience with Buddhism and meditation are welcome.
The Lamrim is a condensation of all of Buddha's 84,000 teachings into 21 meditations. At the start of each class we relax the mind and body with a meditation that cultivates mindfulness and mental stability.
The class meets from 7pm to 8pm. The cost is $4, with discounts for students and seniors. No one turned away for lack of funds.
Meditation and Teachings are rely upon The New Meditation Handbook by Geshe Kelsang Gyatso.
We then discuss one of the Lamrim teachings, some of which are:
- Understanding the Preciousness of our Human Life
- Remembering Death and Impermanence
- Developing the Wish for Liberation from All of our Negative Minds
- Recognizing the Kindness of Others
- Wishing Love
- Cultivating Great Compassion
- Understanding the Ultimate Nature of Things: The Emptiness of All Phenomena
