Anger Management

with Resident Teacher Gen Kelsang Rabten

class fee: $15 (free for members)

Monday 2, 9, 16, 23 & 30 Oct

According to Buddhism of all our negative minds, anger is the most destructive. Yet many believe anger is a force for change, not understanding the destruction it actually causes.

In this course, we’ll learn to become a scientist of our own mind, seeing which states make us peaceful and strong and which cause emotional problems and damage relationships.

We will explore the following and more:

  • Can you fight for what you believe in without anger?
  • Does anger create change or does it stifle it?
  • Is anger a natural part of being human?
  • Is anger ever justified?

We’ll also learn how meditation can help to reduce our reliance on anger and eventually eradicate it altogether.

Living in the Moment

with Kelsang Luma

class fee: $15 (free for members)

Wednesday 30 Aug, 6, 13 Sep

We all like the idea of living in the moment but what does it actually mean? The notion of enjoying everything around us and truly appreciating those we care about resonates with most people, but is that your experience? Many of us put off our happiness and wellbeing with the thought ‘I’ll be happy when…’. The result being that we easily become despondent and unable to appreciate anything, even the good things! 

During this course learn how to meditate on impermanence, the special wisdom that realizes there is only the present! Instead of wishing your life away, learn how to create happiness and contentment within.
