Making Progress in our Spiritual Practice

Forgiveness
10 March, 10am - 1pm
In holding on to the past, we create a deep wound in our heart that never seems to heal. Buddha teaches us how to identify the real objects of blame. Through this wisdom, we can learn to forgive others, let go of the past, and move in the direction of healthy, loving relationships and a happy life.

Living without Fear
28 April, 10am - 1pm
We have so many fears: loneliness, poverty, sickness, death, the future of this world and our children. Fear stops us from living our life and prevents us from finding any lasting inner peace. Buddha explained clearly the roots of our fears and provided clear practices for removing them. By applying these practices, we can live a life without fear, and learn to protect others from fear as well.

Mindfulness
16 June, 10am - 1pm
It often feels as if our meditations and our daily life are pulling in different directions. In meditation we try to concentrate but we can’t stop thinking about our other activities. The good feelings we do manage to develop are then quickly dissipated in the busyness of daily life. Mindfulness means stopping distractions. Learn how to improve your mindfulness and thus enjoy your meditations and stay focused in your daily life.
