The Magical Play of the Mind: Learning to See Reality Clearly

Saturday, April 18: Daycourse 10am-1pm, Retreat 2:30-3:30pm and 4-5pm
With Resident Teacher Gen Kelsang Wangpo

Our mind is much more involved in creating our world than we might think. This daycourse and afternoon retreat will focus on developing a practical understanding of how to meditate on the true nature of reality, emptiness.

Normally, we tend to grasp at things far too concretely, and this grasping underlies all our tension, anxiety, and frustration. By contemplating Buddha’s startling and profound teachings on the ultimate nature of reality, we can begin to let go our our misperception of how things exist. When we recognize the dream-like nature of reality, our mind becomes peaceful, flexible, and creative. Ultimately, we can achieve permanent freedom from suffering.

Class $25, Retreat $5 per session, or $30 for the whole day. For Students and Seniors: Class $15, or $18 for the whole day. Free for Supporters.
