Growing Awareness through Meditation
with Ven. Jampa Sangmo
Sunday, August 25: 10:30am-12pm
Venerable Jampa Sangmo will explore how meditation is a necessary component leading to contentment and peace. In this Taste of Buddhism, we will discuss the qualities of awareness; what it is, how to recognize it, and how it is cultivated. We will also inquire into what interferes with stabilizing our awareness both in meditation and in daily activity. Understanding of this dynamic provides us the ability to be present with experience, allowing clarity, insight and equanimity to arise. It is the foundation for wisdom, compassion and awakening.
This is part of our Taste of Buddhism program. Join us for a short talk, meditation, and taste treats on Sunday mornings. Each week features a new topic. Open to all levels.
