VIRTUAL TASTE OF BUDDHISM:
What About ME?! Exploring the Self


with Emily Hsu
Karuna Cayton
Sunday, April 26, 10:30am - 12pm
Facebook Livestream
​
According to Buddhism, the source of all our pain and problems is misunderstanding how the self exists. Freedom comes when we eradicate this misunderstanding and realize how the self actually exists. In this session we will explore the nature of the self, both intellectually and experientially.

About Emily 
Emily Hsu completed FPMT's 7-year Master’s Program at Istituto Lama Tsong Khapa in Italy in 2004, a condensed version of the geshe studies curriculum. As a graduate of the Master’s Program, she is authorized to teach courses which are normally taught by geshes. After completing this intensive study program Emily subsequently completed a ten-month solitary retreat in Spain to integrate the material. Emily tries to do at least a few months of retreat every year in order to deepen her practice, transforming intellectual knowledge into felt experience. Emily Hsu has taught in the Bay Area since 2006 and served as the resident teacher at our sister center Ocean of Compassion Buddhist Center (OCBC) near San Jose, CA where she taught a variety of classes including FPMT’s Basic Program. Emily is also one of the few teachers selected by Lama Zopa Rinpoche as being qualified to lead retreats on shiné (calm abiding).

"Emily’s teaching goes beyond the simple explanation of complex texts and ideas; she explains things in a way that show us how to apply the Buddha’s teachings in our lives and leads us by excellent example. She is easy to confide in and gives appropriate advice, even on topics that are uncomfortable to talk about". ~ a student from Ocean of Compassion Buddhist Center.
