Buddha taught that love is the great protector. Both we ourselves and others are protected by love from harmful actions and suffering, and a loving heart inspires us to treat others with consideration and kindness.
However, our love is often mixed with attachment, which makes us possessive, anxious and easily hurt. Come explore Buddha’s wisdom teachings on how to discern the difference between love and attachment, and learn methods to weaken our attachment while improving our mind of love.
This Tuesday evening meditation class will take a practical look at Buddha’s teachings on the nature and function of our mind. Each week will include:
- guided breathing meditation
- a short teaching on how to access more inner calm and kindness
- a concluding contemplative time
- Q&A time with Gen Khedrub
Tuesday, February 13 - Love vs. attachment
Tuesday, March 5 - The power of intention
Tuesday, March 19 - Purification practice
Location: These classes are held at the Church of the Covenant, 67 Newbury St.
Cost: $12 per class / free for members.
