Buddhism in Cities and in the Heart of Mountains – 23 Jan 2027
The problems we face in daily life arise from troubled minds and emotions. Without inner peace, it is difficult to find ease in body and mind, no matter how much wealth or how high a position we have in society. This is why we need to learn how to bring peace to our minds.
By studying and practising the teachings of Buddha Shakyamuni, the great teacher of the mind who lived 2,500 years ago, we can learn to care for our minds and find peace within.
Tibetan Buddhist teacher Tulku Dakpa Rinpoche will give a talk on mental well-being as viewed from the perspective of Buddhist practices and philosophy. How are the teachings of Buddha Shakyamuni relevant to our contemporary lives? What are the possibilities for gaining the benefits from Buddhist practices, within the context of modern city life, versus retreating to remote environments?
Please come and join us. This teaching addresses body-mind issues that are relevant to all levels of students and practitioners of Buddhism. It may be the precious medicine your mind needs.
