Buddhist Psychology

with Karuna Cayton
Sunday, Dec 8: 10:30am-12pm
When looking at Buddhist teachings, a surprising fact a newcomer may notice is that Buddhism resembles a system of psychology more than a religion. This morning Karuna will share a clear understanding of the link between psychology and happiness. He will share his thoughts on where present day modern psychology still falls short on providing a complete path to mental health and how Buddhist psychology, with over 2600 years of application, provides this complete path. An interactive dialogue with Karuna and participants is encouraged. Please bring your questions.
​​
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.
