The Tibetan Book of Living and Dying is widely regarded as one of the most complete and authoritative presentations of Tibetan Buddhism. A manual for life and death and a source of sacred inspiration from the heart of the Tibetan tradition, The Tibetan Book of Living and Dying provides a lucid and inspiring introduction to the practice of meditation, to the nature of mind, to karma and rebirth, and to the trials and rewards of the spiritual path. The teachings, meditation and contemplations from this authentic tradition reveal how each of us can live a more meaningful, connected and fulfilling life.Join us as we continue our experiential journey through this book. Discover a deep and universal wisdom explored in the major themes of the book and learn about their practical implications for living well. Suitable for people of any religion or of none, this course encourages us to reflect on the Buddhist teachings, to see what makes sense to us and to experiment with applying these teachings in our daily lives.
We will introduce you to:
• Different approaches to meditation to bring peace of mind.
• How meditation can transform our perception, increase our confidence and fully connect us to the world around us.
• Evolution, Karma and Rebirth. How understanding the interdependency of all things and the principle of karma (that every action has an effect) gives us a logical basis for ethics and personal responsibility.
• The Natural Bardo of Life and what it means.
• How to follow a Spiritual Path and connect with our Innermost Essence
Led by instructors with many years of experience of these teachings, each session consists of:
• Video teachings from Tibetan and Western Buddhist masters including Sogyal Rinpoche, Jetsün Khandro Rinpoche, Ringu Tulku Rinpoche, Mingyur Rinpoche, Pema Chödrön and Sharon Salzberg.
• Meditation practice
• Time for contemplation
• Group discussions and Q&A, offering you the opportunity to explore the teachings and practices in an open supportive environment.
