Transforming our hearts and minds to abide in more spacious wisdom and grounded compassion takes training. This 8-class course will offer us two months to explore a text and its associated practices in depth.
The 7-Point Lojong (Geshe Chekawa) outlines challenging yet potentially powerful techniques for developing our capacity to transform suffering into awakening. Perfect for those of us out in the world, the text comprises pithy and direct aphorisms that get directly to the point with practical advices.
Each class is 2 hours each and includes a talk from Cindy Lee, meditation or contemplation, and time for group discussion or breakout groups.
