Freedom from Worry
Anxiety is increasingly common in today’s uncertain world. We can find ourselves afraid of turning inwards, looking into our mind, because if we did, we would see that we are living in a state of almost constant discomfort and anxiety. We do not know how to maintain a peaceful and balanced mind, free from worry and fear.
For this Friday Night Talk, guest teacher Gen Kelsang Zamling will explain how we can gain the courage to look inward and identify and remove the causes of anxiety and mental pain. Through this we will become fearless, knowing that we can enjoy a happy and fulfilling life no matter what comes our way.
This talk is perfect for either a stand alone class or part of a deeper dive into understanding the power of concentration in Saturday’s concentration workshop. These classes are suitable for all levels of experience and everyone is welcome.
