The historical Buddha Shakyamuni taught a progressive path to spiritual awakening, starting with mindfulness and ethical behavior, followed by the conscious development of love and compassion as spiritual principles, and the understanding of the limitless nature of mind.
Over time, these three distinct phases of his teachings became known as the “Three Yanas” – the Path of Individual Liberation (Hinayana); the Path of Liberation for All Beings (Mahayana); and the Path of the Indestructible Nature (Vajrayana). Each of these “yanas,” or paths, led the aspirant further along the path of awakening.
This three-week intensive will introduce us to the view and meditation of the Vajrayana, giving an overview of two particular Vajrayana practices – Mantra Meditation and Mahamudra Meditation – which help the student reveal their inner Buddha Nature.
We will meet for three Monday evenings and three Friday evenings on Zoom to learn about Vajrayana meditation and practice it together.
Periods of meditation will be interspersed with advice about how to use the principles of Buddha Nature in everyday life.
