Tibetan Buddhist Philosophy

The one and only goal of the Teachings of Buddhist Philosophy is Happiness. We all look to have more well-being and confort in our life. Buddhist Teachings explain that real happiness stems from inside ourselves. We all have the potential and the capacity to be happy. The teachings of Buddhist Wisdom are wonderful tools that can help us to achieve more and more inner well-being. 

We can easily confuse Love and Attachment in our lives. Teachings from the Buddhist Psychology establish a clear distinction between these 2. Welcome for a talk with our International Teacher Lama Samten, open to all, to better understand how Love can be expanded to increase our happiness, if we can see and release the entanglements of attachment.

Tenzin Gawa (JASON SIMARD) - Speaker

Tenzin Gawa (Jason) is the main teacher of the Paramita Center in Montreal and Toronto. He took monk vows in 2010 from the Tibetan Master Geshe Dawa in India and received the monastic ordination from H.H. Dalai Lama in 2014 and complete ordination in February 2018 in Dharamsala also with His Holiness. Since 2000, Jason has been interested in the Buddha's teaching and met his first teacher, the Tibetan Buddhist Master Lama Samten, in 2002. He studied and trained with him since this time. Jason started to teach in 2006 and since this time travels in different parts of the world to share this ancient wisdom. He also leads pilgrimages and retreats in India since 2004.

*Jason teaches and explains in a simple, clear and humorous way that everyone appreciates a lot, beginners as well as advanced practionners. The important thing, however, is to well understand in order to develop the positive fire of our motivation, because our project of finding peace of mind and inner happiness is something precious to all of us !
