MORPH AND CORE: PRACTICING BUDDHISM IN THE WEST
April 7, 7:00-9:00 PM
Ven. Marut will discuss how “Tibetan” Buddhism is quickly being adapted into an America spiritual practice.

RADICAL COMPASSION: BUDDHIST TECHNIQUES FOR DEVELOPING THE GOOD HEART
April 8, 3:00-5:00 and 7:00-9:00 PM
These talks focus on the Tibetan Buddhist techniques known as lojong, which literally means “mind training.” In Tibet the place of the mind is considered to be at the heart. A less literal but more awakened translation for lojong is “developing the good heart.” Lojong transforms our anger into an unconquerable force of love. We emerge from the practice with a deep feeling of relief when we realize that we are not powerless in the face of our own and others’ suffering.
