Daylong to be held on the land!
Description:
The Buddha’s Four Noble Truths describe the truth of suffering (dukkha), the cause, the path to transformation, and the fact that there can be a complete release from that dukkha. Though it can seem like the emphasis is on the suffering rather than the potential for release, happiness is experienced at every stage of practice. In our day together, we will contemplate the happiness of this path that is known as “beautiful in the beginning, beautiful in the middle, and beautiful in the end”.
