Thursday Evenings, September 9th —February 2022 | 6:30-8:30pm
All of Buddha Shakyamuni's 84,000 teachings of both Sutra and Tantra are included within the beautiful oral instruction, Request to the Lord of all Lineages.
This profound and blessed prayer was composed especially for us and is designed for easy memorization and deep contemplation. If we meditate on this prayer, it will touch our heart and transform our mind into authentic wisdom, love, compassion, and other spiritual realizations. Venerable Geshe Kelsang Gyatso Rinpoche says: "There is no greater meaning than engaging in this practice."
We are delighted that Kadam Lucy James will be guiding us through the meaning of this prayer with her customary skill and emphasis on applying it practically in our daily lives. She will also be drawing inspiration and material from the teachings and meditations given at the 2021 International Kadampa Spring Festival.
We request those of you who are interested to sign up for the entire course in order to get the full benefit. Each class will remain available for the duration of the month it was taught in.
Discussion is an important part of taking these teachings to heart. All Buddhism In-depth students are invited to join in for a Zoom discussion with another student during the class.
