The Courage to Change: Finding Your Authentic Self
meditation course

SAT  May 31 | 10am-1pm

with Gen Kelsang Chokyi
Resident Teacher at KMC Bloomington & KMC Indianapolis

The “self” and “others” that is unloveable and unchangeable is untrue, it’s a mistaken view. When we understand the nature of the self and learn to identify with our pure potential, then we can begin to overcome the negative states of mind that we usually identify that lead us to discouragement and discontent. Then, we can have the courage to develop an authentic self confidence based on wisdom versus ignorance. 

 

“Delusions are distorted ways of looking at ourself, other people and the world around us. The way a deluded mind views these phenomena does not accord with reality. All delusions function like this, projecting onto the world their own distorted version of reality and then relating to this projection as if it were true. ”

 — Geshe Kelsang Gyatso Rinpoche


The talk includes guided meditations, short teachings as well as Q&A in the last session. Everyone can benefit from this retreat — you don't have to be Buddhist to participate.
