About the Course

Write your awesome label here.
This course will help us gain a deeper understanding of the Abhidharma tradition’s unique approach to identifying the causes of suffering and how to uproot them. We will receive essential instructions on how we can use both resting and analytical meditation to overcome various degrees of suffering that we currently experience. 

We will also explore the importance of mindfulness and how we can apply it to all aspects of our experience, including our bodies, feelings, minds, and the phenomena around us. The result of this exploration can lead us to an inner freedom that doesn’t depend on any circumstance and is always with us.

If we’re really engaged in mindfulness while walking along the path to the village, then we will consider the act of each step we take as an infinite wonder, and a joy will open our hearts like a flower, enabling us to enter the world of real.
