Tuesday Night Meditation 

As humans we make many kinds of choices daily. We can choose loving kindness based on our intention to do so as well as how we perceive others. During this series, Gen Chokyi will explore how to cultivate and maintain a loving and kind mindset towards others based on Buddha’s teachings on loving kindness by shifting our views and intentions.

“In short, we need others for our physical, emotional and spiritual well-being. Without others we are nothing. Our sense that we are an island, an independent, self-sufficient individual, bears no relation to reality. It is closer to the truth to picture ourself as a cell in the vast body of life, distinct yet intimately bound up with all living beings.”  - Geshe Kelsang Gyatso
