What is BUDDHISM? Who is Buddha and what did he teach? INTRODUCTION TO
BUDDHISM IS A RELAXED, informal class that explores the fundamental
concepts of BUDDHISM, the ancient philosophy that is profoundly
relevant to our lives today. BUDDHISM IS A PATH WHICH HELPS US TO MAKE
SENSE OF OUR LIVES, awaken our hearts to joy and compassion and our
minds to peace and serenity.
The main topic of this class is the first teaching Buddha gave, the
Four Noble Truths, the very heart of BUDDHISM FROM WHICH ALL OF
BUDDHA’s teachings flow.
Buddhist philosophy explores the complex mechanism of cause and
effect, karma and causality, which is not only a very complete
explanation of the mysteries of our existence but offers a framework
by which we can make our lives happier and more meaningful. Through
practicing what Buddha taught we can achieve mental calm and
resilience, allowing us to more easily cope with the difficulties we
all encounter in our daily lives.
This class is interactive, with questions and discussion encouraged
and is led by experienced, senior students who are serious Buddhist
practitioners.
