Tonglen and the Path of Compassion

March 18, 2023 @ 10:00 am - 12:00 pm

Lotus flower

THIS IS BOTH an online event and an in-person event. Attend in person, or by Zoom!

Shamatha Meditation gives us a grounding in the basics of mindfulness, which can help pacify our mental afflictions.

However, the seeds of those mental afflictions remain within our minds, and when conditions are right, mental afflictions will arise again, and again.

To uproot these patterns once and for all, we need to apply the other teachings of Buddhism.

Compassion meditation practice, also called Tonglen, is a simple technique for counteracting mental afflictions through the development of loving kindness toward ourselves and others. By developing a mind of love and tenderness, we can cut through egoistic clinging and establish a new relationship with ourselves and others.
