Modern Buddhism: The Path of Compassion & Wisdom — LIVE via ZOOM

The instructions given in Modern Buddhsim are scientific methods for improving our human nature and qualities through developing the capacity of our mind”. Happiness and suffering are states of mind and so their main causes are not to be found outside the mind. If we want to be truly happy and free from suffering, we must learn how to control our mind. Buddha taught that the mind has the power to create all pleasant and unpleasant objects. The world is the result of the karma, or actions, of the beings who inhabit it. A pure world is the result of pure actions and an impure world is the result of impure actions. Since all actions are created by mind, ultimately everything, including the world itself, is created by mind. There is no creator other than the mind.

This class series is taught by Gen Kelsang Chokyi, Resident Teacher at KMC Bloomington, and is based on Modern Buddhism by Geshe Kelsang Gyatso, 

Everyone can benefit from meditation whether you are Buddhist or non-Buddhist. You will have 24 hours to listen.
