Buddha taught that compassion alone is not enough to solve our problems or to effectively help others. We also need to develop our wisdom. In our next 4 week series we will explore exactly what this means!
Week by week we will train in compassion, learn what wisdom is from a Buddhist perspective, and how to combine our compassionate intentions with wisdom. In doing so we will learn how to discriminate between what will bring only temporary benefits vs an ultimate solution for our problems. By training in compassion and wisdom we feel more empowered in our ability to face our own suffering, and that of those around us.
Everybody is welcome to attend all or any of this course which will focus on teachings on compassion, wisdom and Bodhichitta based on the book ‘How to Transform Your Life‘.

Venue: Kadampa Meditation Centre Edinburgh | 172 Leith Walk, EH6 5EA
