By his kindness Ven. Tenzin Gendun agreed to guide us throughout the topics of Lam Rim for 1 year. We`ll have evening sessions twice a month, every second Monday, except of course holiday months (for now August and December) when we`ll have 1 meeting.

Main title: BUDDHIST TEACHINGS THROUGH MEDITATION

Date: August 10 th

Hour: 7.00 PM – 10.00 PM

August topic: THE TRUE SUFFERING (The First Noble Truth)

Over this coming year we will explore the Buddhist path and teaching with the idea to integrate it into our daily lives. The aim of this course is to give you a solid footing in the practice of Buddhism, as taught in the Tibetan tradition. You can gain an experiential taste of the Buddha`s teachings, the technique to integrate it in meditation, and the skills needed to make your life most meaningful.

Joining this course you will discover a warm approach by Ven. Tenzin Gendun, a wise teacher with a unique charisma and a subtle humor being open to answer your questions.

THE STRUCTURE OF THE SESSIONS:

1. OPENING MEDITATION where we scan the body under guidance

2.TEACHING SESSION

3. Q&A SESSION

4. INTEGRATING MEDITATION on the discussed topic

At the end of the session we can have an optional/ final personal Q&A session for those in immediate need. We`ll have two short breaks and if personal questions emerge, V. T.G. by his kindness will not let questions unanswered. NOTE: kindly ask your questions after the teaching with close topic on the sessions topic, personal questions can find their answer after the final meditation.
