DB 12 - The Wisdom of Emptiness

Discovering Buddhism Module 12- The Wisdom of Emptiness

The Buddha taught a method to become free from the cycle of suffering called samsara. These essential instructions are teachings on how ourselves, others and all situations we encounter are empty of any true existence. In this course we will look at what this actually means. If we are able to take this to heart we can achieve some inner peace that will result in a permanent cessation of suffering in the future. Participants will also learn what are conventional and ultimate truths and how to engage in different meditations on Emptiness. 

We ask that students show up 10-15 minutes before the class begins at 10 AM as we start promptly with prayers and meditation. This will ensure that participants are not disturbed by people entering the room late.

Please note this is not a drop-in nor an introductory class. To receive the most benefit, it is best to attend the entire series.
