Are you a beginning Dharma practitioner, or just looking to refresh your knowledge? This is the class for you!
This 5-week online series will provide an overview of the basic foundational teachings of Buddha.
Topics will include:
• Meditation Instruction from the Buddha’s Discourse on Establishing Mindfulness
• The Four Noble Truths
• The Eight-Fold Path
• The Three Jewels
• The practice of mettā
• Pali language terminology associated with all these teachings
This course is a great progression from the Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction Course, Essentials of Mindfulness course or the Mindful Self-Compassion course.
These teachings put mindfulness meditation in a larger framework aimed at diminishing (or even eliminating) forms of unnecessary mental distress and suffering through the meditative cultivation, the cultivation of wisdom and the practice of restraint.
