"Happiness and Well-being in Times of Uncertainty"
Buddhism offers meaningful perspectives for making sense of the circumstances of life, and accessible methods for cultivating attitudes and capacities to solve life's problems. Venerable Tenzin Priyadarshi will illuminate basic concepts of Buddhism and show their practical application in contemporary life. The inner steadiness to face life's uncertainties, calmness, clarity, and well-being, can be found through putting these methods into practice.
Saturday & Sunday, February 11 & 12
Weekend retreat at Chapman University
"Vimalakirti Sutra"
The Vimalakirti Sutra has been a popular Buddhist text throughout Asia for over two thousand years. It is noted for it's qualities of being concise, having vivid dramatic and humorous episodes, and having an eloquent exposition of emptiness. It is different from most other sutras in that the main character is not Buddha or a monk, but the layman Vimalakirti, who is shown to be a Bodhisattva and to have spiritual attainment equal to or better than many of Buddha's ordained disciples. This Sutra serves as an encouragement to laypeople that the highest levels of spiritual attainment are not reserved for monks and nuns, but are open to laypersons equally.
