Meditation-Series
🌿 Who am I? Discovering the True Nature of Self
3 Weeks Meditation Series
Join us on a deeply transformative three-part journey into the heart of Buddha’s wisdom teachings. A 3-week meditation series based on Buddha’s teachings on emptiness. Through guided meditations and profound insights from Kadampa Buddhism, we will explore the question at the core of our spiritual path: Who am I?
By examining the nature of the self, we can begin to free ourselves from the limiting and painful ideas—thoughts and beliefs that hold us back, make us anxious, and leave us dissatisfied. These teachings on emptiness are not abstract philosophy—they are the key to inner freedom and lasting peace.
💛 The Power of Kindness
2 Weeks Meditation Series
Kindness is not just a beautiful idea – it is a powerful force that can transform our mind, our relationships, and our world.
In this two-week series, we will explore Buddha’s teachings on loving-kindness and learn how to develop a truly open heart and a strong, stable mind rooted in love.
By making kindness our daily practice, we create the foundation for genuine inner peace and true happiness – for ourselves and others.
