The Wheel of Life
Sat 21 Mar | 10.30am – 4.30pm
Birth, life death and everything in between ….
Even if we contemplate the most sublime paintings and works of art we cannot gain benefits that compare with the benefits of contemplating and meditating on the famous Buddhist diagram of the Wheel of Life.
During this special day course Buddhist nun Kelsang Yonchen, resident teacher of KMC Aberdeen, will give a tour of the Wheel of Life and explain how we can use this diagram to guide us in our meditation practice and inspire us in our spiritual life. We will learn why we experience the sufferings and problems that we do, and how we can permanently break free from these.
” Make effort to destroy the cycle of suffering
Enter the path to liberation
Abandon all delusions and learn to cherish others”
The Wheel of Life
Each session will consist of teachings and guided meditations. We sit on chairs, and no exercise is involved.
