Friday Night Public Talk 10 November at 7pm
How to live a happy life
Cost is $15 or $10 member/concession - No bookings required
This teaching, which is from the category of teachings known as mind training, was given directly by the Bodhisattva Manjushri to the great Lama Sakyapa Kunga Nyingpo. It consists of four lines, which are the quintessential teachings on how to genuinely enter the parth to liberation and how to practice Dharma with the right motivation. These teachings are essential for anyone who wishes to understand Buddhism and to create the right motivation and inspiration for practice. Venerable Khenpo Ngawang Dhamchoe has studied and taught this particular text many times and will bring wisdom and insight to these classic four lines.
"If you have attachment to this life, you are not a religious person.
If you have attachment to the world of existence, you do not have renunciation.
If you have attachment to your own purpose, you do not have enlightenment thought (Bodhicitta).
If grasping arises, you do not have the view."
Cost for the weekend retreat is: $160 or $140 member/concession, includes lunch and refreshments on both days. Bookings essential by 9 November, to book, click on our Trybooking link: https://www.trybooking.com/RFXF
