Everyone is looking for something that will
bring happiness, solve our problems, and help get our lives
under control. We often hope that financial success can bring
the security and happiness we desire. However, all of us have
access to a source of inner wealth - Jewels from the Mind.
In this inspiring and approachable series of
classes, Gen Atisha will introduce us to five special minds
that, when cultivated, can bring the calm and happy life we
seek. These introductory classes are particularly suitable
for beginners. Everyone is welcome.

Whether you wish to learn to

Buddha, we provide meaningful and appropriate teachings.
Kadampa
Buddhism offers a gentle and very practical path of self-improvement
that allows us to find inner peace and happiness. It shows us
how we can reduce our anger, greed, jealousy and other negative
mind states and develop positive qualities such as love, compassion,
kindness and wisdom.
Although they originated more
than two and a half thousand years ago, these teachings remain
applicable to our modern lifestyle. Kadampa Buddhism is ideal
for busy people.
Through applying these teachings
we can improve ourselves and thereby improve the world in which
we live.
Why
Meditate?
Happiness is a state of mind, therefore
the real source of happiness lies in the mind, not in external
circumstances.
If our mind is pure and peaceful we
shall be happy, regardless of our external conditions, but if
it is impure and unpeaceful we shall never find happiness, no
matter how much we try to change our external circumstances.
Meditation
enables us to cultivate those states of mind that are conducive
to peace and well-being, and eradicate those that are not.
