About this event
The long-term perspective espoused by Buddhist thought is clarifying and freeing. We stop sweating the small stuff as we base our thinking on the vast time horizon of countless past and future lives. This view helps us understand our idiosyncrasies and confusions, illuminating the path forward. Specifically, focus on what matters—creating good intentions, loving people more, and making a positive difference in the world.
Come learn the ins and outs of rebirth, the formless continuum of our mind and what it all means for the ‘here and now’ of our present life.
