The path to creating the most meaningful and joyful life does not have to involve making external changes in job or lifestyle. It simply involves making a shift in our intention. In this series, we will understand how, through deepening our connection with positive intentions, we can improve our life, as well as bring peace and happiness to others.

This month’s focus: CONCENTRATION
Our mind is often pulled in many directions, making it difficult to feel settled or fully present with others. In Kadampa Buddhism, concentration is a mind that remains single-pointedly on a virtuous object. By developing this ability, we can deepen our inner peace and give strength to positive minds such as love and compassion. Motivated by the wish to benefit others, training in concentration becomes part of our path to becoming a friend of the world.

In this class, we will explore what Buddha meant by concentration and learn practical ways to reduce distraction and bring greater stability, clarity and peace into our meditation and daily life. Everyone welcome!
