Description:
The attainment of enlightenment has a hallowed place in Buddhism. We often assume it’s some distant, rarified achievement that is only accessible for certain people at certain times. But what if each day could be punctuated by the experience of deep letting go? And what if nibbāna was something within our reach, or even inevitable? The more we subscribe to the belief that freedom is remote, the more we lose hope, give up on ourselves, or feel resigned to a dismal and difficult path.
We are preoccupied with pleasure and pain and with the task of managing an uncertain world, yet the longing for peace animates our moments. How do we develop the trust to release into ease and the clarity to know when, even if momentarily, there is peace? Our time together will explore the possibilities for nurturing freedom in the ordinariness of our lives. Please join us.
