Duration: 1hr 15min
Dates: Wednesdays 8th,15th, 22nd May 2024
Format: Three Sessions, Live Online
Overview
The perfections or “paramitas” are the core of our bodhisattva practice. Once we develop the altruistic intention to attain enlightenment to benefit all living creatures without exception in the greatest possible way, it will be our generosity, ethical behaviour, forbearance, joyous effort, ability to concentrate and wisdom, which will bring us to that goal. Together we will explore what they are, what makes them perfect and how we can start and continue to cultivate them. Each session will be complemented with guided meditation.
"It is well to remember that the entire population of the universe, with one trifling exception, is composed of others." Andrew J. Holmes
